The unenvied man is not enviable.
[Hermes addresses Prometheus :] To you, the clever and crafty, bitter beyond all bitterness, who has sinned against the gods in bestowing honors upon creatures of a day--to you, thief of fire, I speak.
As long as there are men the bulwark is safe.
Justice turns the scale, bringing to some learning through suffering.
It is the nature of mortals to kick a fallen man.
Necessity is stronger far than art.
