What with your friend you nobly share, At least you rescue from your heir.

The impartial earth opens alike for the child of the pauper and the king.

Horace 1072 quotes

Care clings to wealth: the thirst for more Grows as our fortunes grow.

Horace 1072 quotes

Drive Nature from your door with a pitchfork, and she will return again and again.

Horace 1072 quotes

The short span of life forbids us to take on far-reaching hopes.

The ear of the bridled horse is in the mouth.

Horace 1072 quotes

Remember you must die whether you sit about moping all day long or whether on feast days you stretch out in a green field, happy with a bottle of Falernian from your innermost cellar.

Horace 1072 quotes

The poets aim is either to profit or to please, or to blend in one the delightful and the useful. Whatever the lesson you would convey, be brief, that your hearers may catch quickly what is said and faithfully retain it. Every superfluous word is spilled from the too-full memory.

Horace 1072 quotes

One night awaits all, and death's path must be trodden once and for all.

Horace 1072 quotes

Punishment closely follows guilt as its companion.

Horace 1072 quotes

When a man is just and firm in...

When a man is just and firm in his purpose,
The citizens burning to approve a wrong
Or the frowning looks of a tyrant
Do not shake his fixed mind, nor the Southwind.
Wild lord of the uneasy Adriatic,
Nor the thunder in the mighty hand of Jove:
Should the heavens crack and tumble down,
As the ruins crushed him he would not fear.

Horace 1072 quotes

I am not bound over to swear a...

I am not bound over to swear allegiance to any master; where the storm drives me I turn in for shelter.

Horace 1072 quotes

Few cross the river of time an...

Few cross the river of time and are able to reach non-being. Most of them run up and down only on this side of the river. But those who when they know the law follow the path of the law, they shall reach the other shore and go beyond the realm of death.

It's a good thing to be foolishly gay once in a while.

Horace 1072 quotes

Great effort is required to ar...

Great effort is required to arrest decay and restore vigor. One must exercise proper deliberation, plan carefully before making a move, and be alert in guarding against relapse following a renaissance.

Horace 1072 quotes

There is a proper measure in a...

There is a proper measure in all things, certain limits beyond which and short of which right is not to be found. Who so cultivates the golden mean avoids the poverty of a hovel and the envy of a palace.

Horace 1072 quotes

Joy, grief, desire or fear, wh...

Joy, grief, desire or fear, whate'er the name The passion bears, its influence is the same; Where things exceed your hope or fall below, You stare, look blank, grow numb from top to toe.

Horace 1072 quotes

While we're talking, time will...

While we're talking, time will have meanly run on... pick today's fruits, not relying on the future in the slightest.

Horace 1072 quotes

If you drive nature out with a pitchfork, she will soon find a way back.

Horace 1072 quotes

Our parents, worse than our grandparents, gave birth to us who are worse than they, and we shall in our turn bear offspring still more evil.
