Lucillius QUOTES

1 " Eutychides the lyric poet is dead.
Escape! you who inhabit the underworld,
for he comes with odes,
and orders thirteen lyres and twenty crates of music
to burn beside him on his funeral pyre.
Now Charon has you,
for where can you escape
with Eutychides established in Hell? "

― Lucillius

2 " We his grateful opponents erected this statue
To Apis a Thoughtful Boxer
who even when clinching never hurt any of us. "

― Lucillius
