Gods Quotes

Now that is the wisdom of a man, in every instance of his labor, to hitch his wagon to a star, and see his chore done by the gods themselves.

Racism is a blight on the human conscience. The idea that any people can be inferior to another, to the point where those who consider themselves superior define and treat the rest as subhuman, denies the humanity even of those who elevate themselves to the status of gods Picture Quote #1

Badness you can get easily, in quantity. The road is smooth and lies close by. But in front of excellence the immortal gods have put sweat, and long and steep is the way to do it, and rough at first. But when you come to the top, then it is easy, even though it is hard Picture Quote #1

As to gods, I have no way of knowing either that they exist or do not exist, or what they are like Picture Quote #1

For this is the mark of a wise and upright man, not to rail against the gods in misfortune Picture Quote #1

Happy is he who has gained the wealth of divine thoughts, wretched is he whose beliefs about the gods are dark Picture Quote #1

Whether gods exist or not, there is no way to get absolute certainty about ethics. Without absolute certainty, what do we do? We do the best we can Picture Quote #1

That is the difference between gods and men. Gods can change themselves; humans can only be changed Picture Quote #1

The gods are not magicians who transform themselves; neither do they deceive mankind in any way Picture Quote #1
