About Author: Greek tragic dramatist (484 BC - 406 BC)
Quotes:Never say that marriage has more of joy than pain.
A second wife
is hateful to the children of the first;
a viper is not more hateful.
A sweet thing, for whatever time,
to revisit in dreams the dear dad we have lost.
Light be the earth upon you, lightly rest.
Dishonor will not trouble me, once I am dead.
You were a stranger to sorrow: therefore Fate has cursed you.
I have found power in the mysteries of thought,
exaltation in the changing of the Muses;
I have been versed in the reasonings of men;
but Fate is stronger than anything I have known.
Time cancels young pain.
