Gilbert Murray Quotes

Few of the great works of ancient Greek literature are easy reading Picture Quote #1
The fashions of the ages vary in this direction and that, but they vary for the most part from a central road which was struck out by the imagination of Greece Picture Quote #1
The higher Greek poetry did not make up fictitious plots; its business was to express the heroic saga, the myths Picture Quote #1
It is doubtless one of Aristotle’s great services that he conceived so clearly the truth that literature is a thing that grows and has a history Picture Quote #1
Sometimes Aristotle analyses his terms, but very often he takes them for granted; and in the latter case, I think, he is sometimes deceived by them Picture Quote #1
The fact is that much misunderstanding is often caused by our modern attempts to limit too strictly the meaning of a Greek word Picture Quote #1

A machine is a great moral educator. If a horse or a donkey won’t go, men lose their tempers and beat it; if a machine won’t go, there is no use beating it. You have to think and try till you find what is wrong. That is real education Picture Quote #1
It is doubtless one of Aristotle’s great services that he conceived so clearly the truth that literature is a thing that grows and has a history Picture Quote #1
The life and liberty and property and happiness of the common man throughout the world are at the absolute mercy of a few persons whom he has never seen, involved in complicated quarrels that he has never heard of Picture Quote #1
Be careful in dealing with a man who cares nothing for comfort or promotion, but is simply determined to do what he believes to be right. He is a dangerous uncomfortable enemy, because his body, which you can always conquer, gives you little purchase upon his soul Picture Quote #1
Greek was very much a live language, and a language still unconscious of grammar, not, like ours, dominated by definitions and trained upon dictionaries Picture Quote #1
