Aeschylus Quotes

Power newly won is always harsh.

Fire has proved / for men a teacher in every art, their grand resource.

These are new laws indeed / By which Zeus tyrannically rules; / And the great powers of the past he now destroys.

All his wisdom is but folly before Zeus.

I am the miserable sport of every wind.

He now must suffer, / Till he be taught to accept the sovereignty of Zeus.

I ... shall yet be needed by the lord of immortals / To ... tell him who it is / Shall rob him of his power and his glory.
