Famous quotes containing the word greece:

    It was modesty that invented the word “philosopher” in Greece and left the magnificent overweening presumption in calling oneself wise to the actors of the spirit—the modesty of such monsters of pride and sovereignty as Pythagoras, as Plato.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Tell Greece that her spring has been taken out of her year.
    Herodotus (c. 484–424 B.C.)

    All that grave weight of America
    Cancelled! Like Greece and Rome.
    The future in ruins!
    Louis Simpson (b. 1923)
