A decent boldness ever meets with friends. Homer A sympathetic friend can be quite as dear as a brother. Homer And what he greatly thought, he nobly dared. Homer Be still my heart; thou hast known worse than this. Homer But curb thou the high spirit in thy breast, for gentle ways are best, and keep aloof from sharp contentions. Homer Even were sleep is concerned, too much is a bad thing. Homer For rarely are sons similar to their fathers: most are worse, and a few are better than their fathers. Homer Hateful to me as are the gates of hell, Is he who, hiding one thing in his heart, Utters another. Homer Hateful to me as the gates of Hades is that man who hides one thing in his heart and speaks another. Homer How vain, without the merit, is the name. Homer Hunger is insolent, and will be fed. Homer In youth and beauty, wisdom is but rare! Homer It is not good to have a rule of many. Homer Light is the task where many share the toil. Homer Nothing shall I, while sane, compare with a friend. Homer The charity that is a trifle to us can be precious to others. Homer The difficulty is not so great to die for a friend, as to find a friend worth dying for. Homer There is a time for many words, and there is also a time for sleep. Homer There is nothing nobler or more admirable than when two people who see eye to eye keep house as man and wife, confounding their enemies and delighting their friends. Homer To have a great man for an intimate friend seems pleasant to those who have never tried it; those who have, fear it. Homer True friends appear less moved than counterfeit. Homer Two friends, two bodies with one soul inspired. Homer Two urns on Jove's high throne have ever stood,The source of evil one, and one of good; From thence the cup of mortal man he fills,Blessings to these, to those distributes ills;To most he mingles both. Homer Wise to resolve, and patient to perform. Homer Without a sign, his sword the brave man draws, and asks no omen, but his country's cause. Homer Words empty as the wind are best left unsaid. Homer Yet, taught by time, my heart has learned to glow for other's good, and melt at other's woe. Homer
