Herodotus Quotes

Our Omnibus 1 class has just finished the book Herodotus, and here are some of the quotes from the book:

“Haste is the mother of failure.” – Artabantus

“No one is fool enough to choose war instead of peace, in peace sons bury their fathers, but in war fathers bury their               sons.” – Croesus

“Great things are won by great dangers.” – Xerxes

“I am bound to tell what I

 am told, but not in every case to believe it.” – Herodotus

We are pleased with our progress and are continuing to excel in our studies.
