All things may corrupt when minds are prone to evil. Ovid
Nothing is stronger than habit. Ovid
Courage conquers all things. Ovid
You can learn from anyone even your enemy. Ovid
In our play we reveal what kind of people we are. Ovid

We are ever striving after what is forbidden, and coveting what is denied us. Ovid
Sleep, nature’s rest, divine tranquillity,
That brings peace to the mind and chases far
All care; that soothes our breasts by daily toil
Over-wearied, and prepares for labour new.
Ovid
Thou seest how sloth wastes the sluggish body, as water is corrupted unless it moves. Ovid
Nothing is stronger than custom. Ovid
Stop short of your appetite; eat less than you are able. Ovid
