Immo enim vero corpus Priamo reddidi, Hectora abstuli.
No no! It is a corpse that I have rendered
To Priam; Hector I have taken from him.

More quotes by Lucius Accius

A woman's nature, lust, and opportunity.

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

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.
