Quotes by Athenaeus of Naucratis (?)

“And some men say, that the flight of Bacchus to the sea is emblematic of the making of wine, as it was practised long ago; because wine is very sweet when sea-water is poured into it. And Homer praising dark-coloured wine, often calls it =aithops=. For the dark-coloured wine is the strongest, and it remains in the system of the drinkers of it longer than any other.”

“So that it is not easy to put all sorts of things on the table at one time; but it is easy to talk of all kinds of subjects at any time.”

“Rome may fairly be called the nation of the world. And he will not be far out who pronounces the city of the Romans an epitome of the whole earth; for in it you may see every other city arranged collectively, and many also separately; for instance, there you may see the golden city of the Alexandrians, the beautiful metropolis of Antioch, the surpassing beauty of Nicomedia; and besides all these that most glorious of all the cities which Jupiter has ever displayed, I mean Athens.”
