The quotations of
Classical Athenian playwright
481–407 BC
26 quotes, most often on Wisdom, Luck and God. Part of the Writers and Poets collections.
Ignorance of one’s misfortunes is clear gain.
How can any man, whose eyes Are wholesome, seek to rear his children wise Beyond men’s wont? Much helplessness in arts Of common life, and in their townsmen’s hearts Envy deep-set … so much their learning brings! Come unto fools with knowledge of new things, They deem it vanity, not knowledge.
