Aeschylus

Wisdom comes

Aeschylus | April 2022 (Vol. XXXV, No. 4)
Wisdom comes alone through suffering.
~ Aeschylus

We come to wisdom

Aeschylus | April 2018 (Vol. XXXI, No. 4)

Even in our sleep
Pain, which cannot forget
Falls drop by drop
Upon the human heart.
Until, against our will,
We come to wisdom
Through the strength of God.

~ Aeschylus

In our sleep, against our will, comes wisdom

Aeschylus | May 2006 (Vol. XIX, No. 5)

Pain that cannot forget, falls drop by drop upon the heart,
and in our sleep, against our will, comes wisdom through the
awful grace of God.

~ Aeschylus
