Meanwhile the billows droop and drop, the winds
Fall quiet, the sea sinks soft.

Flucti flacciscunt, silescunt venti, mollitur mare.

More quotes by Pacuvius

O you soul-bending queen of all the world,
Eloquence!

Wherever all is well—there is one's native land.

Our country is wherever we are well off.

You may complain of adverse fortune, not
Lament. This is man's duty; weeping is
A quality bestowed on woman's nature.

Ah! Did I save those men that they might be
Men who would ruin me?
