Classical Anthology, Compiled by Sannion

U-Z

Virgil
Not every soil can bear all things.

No less happy he who knows the rural Gods - Pan, and old Sylvanus, and the sisterhood of Nymphs.

Your descendents shall gather your fruit.

Love conquers all things; let us surrender to Love.

Happy the man who could search out the causes of things.

Yield not to evils, but attack all the more boldly.

Had I a hundred tongues, a hundred lips, a throat of iron and a chest of brass, I could not tell all of men's countless sufferings.

If I cannot bend heaven, I shall move hell.

To have died once is enough.

Fortune favors the bold.

So vast was the struggle to found the Roman state.

One composed of many.

I make no distinction between a Trojan and a Tyrian.

I have known sorrow and learned to aid the wretched.

A woman is always a fickle, unstable thing.

Fate will find a way.

We make our destinies by our choice of Gods.

Xenophanes
One should be thoughtful always and right-minded towards the Gods.

Zeus is the head, Zeus the middle, through Zeus all things come to pass.

Not from the start did the Gods reveal all things to mortals, but in time, by inquiring, they make better discoveries.

Xystus
God does not listen to the prayers of the lazy.

Zeno
Things are not good or bad - but according to nature, or contrary to nature.

The wise man will always be involved in public affairs unless something prevents him.

When asked, "What is a friend?" Zeno replied, "Another I."

The goal of life is living in agreement with nature.

Zeuxis
Criticism comes easier than craftsmanship.
