Quotes

Lucretius, Titus Lucretius Carus also said...


The eyes cannot know the nature of things.





The mask is torn off, the reality remains.





Pleasant it is, when over a great sea the winds trouble the waters, to gaze from shore upon another's great tribulation: not because any man's troubles are a delectable joy, but because to perceive from what ills you are free yourself is pleasant.
