2 Creative Quotations from Pindar (c.518BC-438 BC) born Sep 4 Greek poet; He greatly influenced Western poets as the master of "epinicia," odes celebrating athletic victory.

3 Natural ability is by far the best, but many men have succeeded in winning high renown by skill that is the fruit of teaching.

4 Not every truth is the better for showing its face undisguised; and often silence is the wisest thing for a man to heed.

5 Every gift, though it be small, is in reality great if given with affection.

6 If one but tells a thing well, it moves on with undying voice… the bright gleam of noble deeds ever unquenchable.

7 Seek not, my soul, the life of the immortals; but enjoy to the full the resources that are within thy reach.
