Wide awake a man must always be; many are the ambushes laid for the good.

— Lucius Accius

... Vigilandum est semper; multae insidiae sunt bonis.

More quotes by Lucius Accius

A woman's nature, lust, and opportunity.

Whose life is unseemly it befits not to escape a shameful death.

Let them hate, so long as they fear.

Good grain, though to a field of poorer kind
'Tis given, yet it grows of its own nature
Into a gleaming crop.

Intelligence is ours through the mind;
Enjoyment, in our breath; when mind is absent,
Breath is a thing enfeebled.
