Quotes by Hesiod

Hesiod

Whoever has trusted a woman has trusted deceivers.

Do not let a flattering woman coax and wheedle you and deceive you she is after your barn.

Wealth should not be seized, but the god-given is much better.

“That man is best who sees the truth himself. Good too is he who listens to wise counsel. But who is neither wise himself nor willing to ponder wisdom is not worth a straw.”
