Thucydides quotes
Ignorance is bold and knowledge reserved.
Men naturally despise those who court them, but respect those who do not give way to them.
The bravest are surely those who have the clearest vision of what is before them, glory and danger alike, and yet notwithstanding, go out to meet it.
The secret of freedom, courage.
The secret of happiness is freedom. The secret of freedom is courage.
Wars spring from unseen and generally insignificant causes, the first outbreak being often but an explosion of anger.
