Death is softer by far than tyranny
Greek tragedian. He is often described as the father of tragedy. Academics' knowledge of the genre begins with his work, and understanding of earlier tragedies is largely based on inferences from his surviving plays.
Tame the savageness of man and make gentle the life of this world
To seek death is death's only cure.
We know what we are, but know not what we may be.
Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others' faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.
Doubt that the sun doth move, doubt truth to be a liar, but never doubt I love
Live as if your were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever
