Famous quotes by Quintilian:

"It is much easier to try one's hand at many things than to concentrate one's powers on one thing."

"When we cannot hope to win, it is an advantage to yield."

"Verse satire indeed is entirely our own."

"When defeat is inevitable, it is wisest to yield."

"In a crowd, on a journey, at a banquet even, a line of thought can itself provide its own seclusion"

"A liar should have a good memory"

"Those who wish to appear wise among fools, among the wise seem foolish"

"That laughter costs too much, which is purchased by the sacrifice of decency"

"While we deliberate about beginning it is all ready too late to begin"

"Ambition is a vice, but it may be the father of virtue"

"The gifts of nature are infinite in their variety, and mind differs from mind almost as much as body from body."

"While we are examining into everything we sometimes find truth where we least expected it."

"The perfection of art is to conceal art."

"It is fitting that a liar should be a man of good memory."

"Whilst we deliberate how to begin a thing, it grows too late to begin it."

"Where evil habits are once settled, they are more easily broken than mended."

"Without natural gifts technical rules are useless."

"Vain hopes are like certain dreams of those who wake."

"Nature herself has never attempted to effect great changes rapidly."

"Forbidden pleasures alone are loved immoderately; when lawful, they do not excite desire."

Anacharsis (6th century BC) Part 1

Anacharsis quote. Subscribe for more quote recommendations! Anacharsis, (flourished early 6th century bc), legendary Scythian prince included in some ancient Greek lists as one of the Seven Wise Men and extolled as an exemplar of primitive virtue. Herodotus describes how, after extensive travels abroad in quest of knowledge or as an ambassador, Anacharsis returned home and was killed by the Scythians, either because he wanted to introduce the cult of the Great Mother (Magna Mater) of the Gods or because of his attachment to Greek customs. Later authors, offering more details, credit Anacharsis with numerous aphorisms and cite an interview between him and Solon.

Persius, in full Aulus Persius Flaccus (born ad 34, Volaterrae [now Volterra, Italy]—died 62, Campania), Stoic poet whose Latin satires reached a higher moral tone than those of other classical Latin poets (excepting Juvenal).A pupil and friend of the Stoic philosopher Lucius Annaeus Cornutus and a fellow student of the poet Lucan, who admired all he wrote, Persius discovered his vocation as a satirist through reading the 10th book of Lucilius. He wrote painstakingly, and his book of satires was still incomplete at his premature death. - Britannica

Sayings of the Classical World: Terence

Duration: 2:39
Updated: 07 Jul 2014

Publius Terentius Afer, better known in English as Terence, was a playwright of the Roman Republic, of North African descent. His comedies were performed for the first time around 170--160 BC. Terentius Lucanus, a Roman senator, brought Terence to Rome as a slave, educated him and later on, impressed by his abilities, freed him. Terence apparently died young, probably in Greece or on his way back to Rome. All of the six plays Terence wrote have survived. One famous quotation by Terence reads: "Homo sum, humani nihil a me alienum puto", or "I am a human being, I consider nothing that is human alien to me." This appeared in his play Heauton Timorumenos. - Wikipedia

Sayings of the Classical World: Bias of Priene

Duration: 5:35
Updated: 14 Nov 2014

A selection of Bias of Priene quotes. Subscribe for more quote recommendations! Bias (6th century BC) of Priene was a Greek sage. He was always reckoned among the Seven Sages of Greece. He was renowned for his goodness. Bias was born at Priene and was the son of Teutamus. He is said to have been distinguished for his skill as an advocate, and for his use of it in defence of the right. In reference to which Demodicus of Alerius uttered the following saying – "If you are a judge, give a Prienian decision," and Hipponax said, "More powerful in pleading causes than Bias of Priene." He was always reckoned among the Seven Sages, and was mentioned by Dicaearchus as one of the Four to whom alone that title was universally given — the remaining three being Thales, Pittacus, and Solon. Satyrus placed him at the head of the Seven Sages, and even Heraclitus, who poured scorn on figures such as Hesiod and Pythagoras, referred to Bias as "a man of more consideration than any." One of the examples of his great goodness is the legend that says that Bias paid a ransom for some women who had been taken prisoner. After educating them as his own daughters, he sent them back to Messina, their homeland, and to their fathers. Wikipedia

In his early youth he served as a priest of the god Elagabal (in Latin, Elagabalus) in the hometown of his mother's family, Emesa. As a private citizen, he was probably named Sextus Varius Avitus Bassianus. Upon becoming emperor he took the name Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus. He was called Elagabalus only after his death. In 217, the emperor Caracalla was assassinated and replaced by his Praetorian prefect, Marcus Opellius Macrinus. Caracalla's maternal aunt, Julia Maesa, successfully instigated a revolt among the Third Legion to have her eldest grandson (and Caracalla's cousin), Elagabalus, declared emperor in his place. Macrinus was defeated on 8 June 218, at the Battle of Antioch. Elagabalus, barely fourteen years old, became emperor, initiating a reign remembered mainly for sexual scandal and religious controversy. Wikipedia

Top Offspring, Gone Away Italian

Può darsi che in un'altra vita
io potrei incontrarti
Strappata via prima del tempo
Non riesco ad accettare questa ingiustizia
E sembra che...
Sembra che
il paradiso è così lontano
E ci si sente
Sì, ci si sente come se
Il mondo sia diventato freddo
Adesso che te ne sei andata via.
Lasciare fiori sulla tua tomba
Mostrano quanto io ti voglia ancora bene
Ma le rose nere e la grandine
Non possono riportare indietro ciò che mi è stato tolto.
Tendo le braccia verso il cielo
E grido il tuo nome
E se potessi fare a cambio
Vorrei...
E sembra che...
Sembra che
il paradiso sia così lontano
E fa male
Sì, fa male...
Il mondo è così freddo
Adesso che te ne sei andata via.

There's a place I like to go
Cherry bombs and cherry wine
Just past the Texaco
Down on the county line
Beer cans and cemeteries
Spanish moss on the welcome sign
Catch a buzz we all get scared
Down on the county line
Out where your troubles can't find you
Out where you leave them all behind
Out where the motion sweetly
Won't you meet me down on the county line?
Kettle corn and 4 H babies
Pink slips and white wall tires
Bet you 20, I'll beat you there
Down on the county line
It's first love and football wars
A French kiss and battle cries
Further then I've been before
Down on the county line
Out where your troubles can't find you
Out where you leave them all behind
Out where the motion sweetly
Won't you meet me down on the county line?
All the church odds and white wash fences
All the wills and teenage brides
Are all searching for redemption
They're all looking for a sign
Down on the county line
(Down on the county line)
Down on the county line
(Down on the county line)
Down on the county line
The best things in life are free
It's been right here all the time
Is everything this home to me
Down on the county line
Out where your troubles can't find you
Out where you leave them all behind
Out where the motion sweetly
Won't you meet me down on the county line?
Out where your troubles can't find you
Out where we have a real good time
Out where the motion sweetly
Won't you meet me, down on the county line?

I've crossed a weary mile
And on bended knee

As I tie my shoe
One moonlit night in the canyon
I talked about my dreams
Only bugs heard the call
They don't hear me at all
And now I talk in my sleep
When winter comes I'll be way up ahead
'Cause right now it seems so cold
I need her in my arms baby set my alarm
'Cause otherwise I'd sleep til sleeping was dead
And when I get home to my baby
She gonna wear my grandma's ring
And hand in hand we will tell a man
I do
I do
I definitely do
But I won't get drunk without her
And I won't do her no harm
'Cause she's the sweetest blackberry wine

hoping nothing's changed

that is, it's still the same

County line, woah woah woah woah woah.
County line, woah woah woah woah woah.
County line, woah woah woah woah woah.

Top Gruff Rhys, Candylion

A long time ago,
In the Kingdom of Candy,
A lion once roamed the streets,
And kept time.
Howled on the hour,
Whined on the minute,
Roared every second,
Day of the year.
Candylion
Dreams can come true,
Nightmares can also,
Opposites push and pull to the fore.
Morph into flowers,
Or a frozen winter,
Wer're flying in love,
Or falling in hate
Candylion
Candy
A penguin and carnation
Lion
A lemon and Dalmation
Candy
And 'though I look for inspiration
Lion
Still my favorite combinations'

Top Eleni Mandell, County Line

County Line
I got your message, I read your letter
I dreamed of sunny days when we'd be together
I never could have guessed that it would end
You were so careless, you were so reckless
With words of love so sweet I never did suspect it
You'd cross the county line and it was like we never met
Woe is me, I miss my baby
Woe is you, You got so scared that you nearly went crazy
I ask the heavens for explanations
I close my eyes and wish on the constellations
You crossed the county line and it was like we never met
Woe is me, I miss my baby
Woe is you, You got so scared that you nearly went crazy
I ask the heavens for explanations
I close my eyes and wish on the constellations
