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.
Avoid evil deeds as a man who loves life avoids poison
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.
Tame the savageness of man and make gentle the life of this world
Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation
The worst sin is that which the sinner takes lightly
The best means of taking revenge on a man is not to resemble that man.
