There is no happiness where there is no wisdom; No wisdom but in submission to the gods. Big words are always punished, And proud men in old age learn to be wise.

Sophocles
Wise, Men, Submission To God
Sophocles (1939). “The Antigone of Sophocles: An English Version by Dudley Fitts and Robert Fitzgerald”
There is no happiness where there is no wisdom; No wisdom but in submission to the gods. Big words are always punished, And proud men in old age learn to be wise.
