Virgil on Fame

← All quotes by Virgil

4 quotes

She (Fame) walks on the earth, and her head is concealed in the clouds.

The fame (or report) has become obscure through age.

Auri sacra fames! Accursed hunger for gold!

Let my delight be the country, and the running streams amid the dells—may I love the waters and the woods, though I be unknown to fame.

Georgics (-29)
