The Wisest Men Follow Their Own Direction.

Courage May Be Taught As A Child Us Taught To Speak.

To Every Man, Even Though He Be A Slave, The Light Of Heaven Is Sweet.

Mankind . . . Possesses Two Supreme Blessings. First Of These Is The Goddess Demeter, Or Earth Whichever Name You Choose To Call Her By. It Was She Who Gave To Man His Nourishment Of Grain. But After Her There Came The Son Of Semele, Who Matched Her Present By Inventing Liquid Wine As His Gift To Man. For Filled With That Good Gift, Suffering Mankind Forgets Its Grief; From It Comes Sleep; With It Oblivion Of The Troubles Of The Day. There Is No Other Medicine For Misery.

The Life Of Men Is Painful.

Happy The Man Who From The Sea Escapes The Storm And Finds Harbor.
