“Different ages bring different men: but everyone hopes
to claim the things he witnessed were truly exceptional.”
ἄλλοισι δ’ ἅλικες ἄλλοι· τὰ δ’ αὐτὸς ἀντιτύχῃ,
ἔλπεταί τις ἕκαστος ἐξοχώτατα φάσθαι.

“Surely it isn’t better when every truth bares its real face.”
οὔ τοι ἅπασα κερδίων
φαίνοισα πρόσωπον ἀλάθει’ ἀτρεκές·
