Who apart from the gods is without pain for his whole lifetime's length?
Suffering brings experience.
Wrong must not win by technicalities.
I pray for no more youth To perish before its prime; That Revenge and iron-heated War May fade with all that has gone before Into the night of time.
Neither a life of anarchy nor a life under a despot should you praise. To all that lies in the middle has a god given excellence.
When a match has equal partners then I fear not.
