Careful Words

Zeus (?.)

  For full indeed is earth of woes, and full the sea; and in the day as well as night diseases unbidden haunt mankind, silently bearing ills to men, for all-wise Zeus hath taken from them their voice. So utterly impossible is it to escape the will of Zeus.

Hesiod (Circa 720 (?) b c): Works and Days. Line 101.

  The dice of Zeus fall ever luckily.

Sophocles (496-406 b c): Phaedra. Frag. 809.
