IV. 10. 3

More quotes by Propertius

Never change when love has found its home.

Time magnifies everything after death; a man's fame is increased as it passes from mouth to mouth after his burial.

There is something beyond the grave; death does not put an end to everything, the dark shade escapes from the consumed pile.

Every one follows the inclinations of his own nature.

Every form as nature made it is correct.
