The Histories by Herodotus
“At the notion of having Hippocleides as his son-in-law, Cleisthenes did not wish to make his displeasure public. The sight of Hippocleides pumping his legs in the air to the music, however, was the final straw. ‘Son of Tisander,’ he declared, ‘you have danced away your marriage.’ To which Hippocleides retorted: ‘Hippocleides could not care less!’. And that was how the celebrated phrase first came to be uttered.”
Herodotus

Homer
“Come, friend, you too must die. Why moan about it so? Even Patroclus died, a far, far better man than you.”
Homer, The Iliad

Plato
“No god is a philosopher or seeker after wisdom, for he is wise already; nor does any man who is wise seek after wisdom. Neither do the ignorant seek after wisdom. But who then are the lovers of wisdom, if they are neither the wise or the foolish? They are those who are in a mean between the two; Love is one of them.”
Plato, The Symposium

“Better not to flinch from anything and suffer terribly for it half the time, than always to imagine that everything will turn out for the worst, and never suffer at all.”
Herodotus, The Histories

Homer
“I’ve had my share of pain in the waves and wars.
Add this to the total. Bring the trial on.”
