quotes from Sophocles "the Greek"

Wisdom outweighs any wealth.
--Sophocles, Antigone

No man loves life like him that's growing old.

One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life:
That word is love.

The keenest sorrow is to recognize ourselves
as the sole cause of all our adversities.

Stranger in a strange country.
--Sophocles, Oedipus at Colonus
