Famous quotes containing the words greek and/or mythology:

    Make room, Roman writers, make room for Greek writers; something greater than the Iliad is born.
    Propertius Sextus (c. 50–16 B.C.)

    One memorable addition to the old mythology is due to this era,—the Christian fable. With what pains, and tears, and blood these centuries have woven this and added it to the mythology of mankind! The new Prometheus. With what miraculous consent, and patience, and persistency has this mythus been stamped on the memory of the race! It would seem as if it were in the progress of our mythology to dethrone Jehovah, and crown Christ in his stead.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
