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.
