Creative Quotations
from Pindar
(c.518BC-438 BC) born Sep 4 Greek poet; He greatly
influenced Western poets as the master of "epinicia," odes
celebrating athletic victory.
Natural ability is by far the
best, but many men have
succeeded in winning high
renown by skill that is the fruit
of teaching.
Not every truth is the better
for showing its face
undisguised; and often
silence is the wisest thing for a man to heed.
Every gift, though it be small, is in
reality great if given with
affection.
If one but tells a thing well, it moves on
with undying voice…
the bright gleam of noble
deeds ever
unquenchable.
Seek not, my soul, the life of the immortals;
but enjoy to the full the
resources that are within thy
reach.
