Eneide Quotes

“He vivido mi vida, el noble curso / que me abrió la Fortuna he recorrido, / y ahora mi jornada bajo tierra emprendo, magna sombra.
950-955”
― Virgil, Aeneid IV

“A noble inner shrine waits for you too in our kingdom.

There, gracious one, I will place your oracles, and mystic

utterances spoken to my people, and consecrate picked men.

Only do not write your verses on the leaves, lest they fly,

disordered playthings of the rushing winds: chant them

from your own mouth.”
― Virgil, Aeneid IV
