Ἐμπειρία γὰρ τῆς ἀπειρίας κρατεῖ → Inscitiam etenim vincit experientia → Erfahrung überwindet Unerfahrenheit

Menander, Monostichoi, 169

English > Greek (Woodhouse)

woodhouse 605.jpg

adverb

firmly: P. ἰσχυρῶς.

like a master: P. δεσποτικῶς.

though we do not peremptorily order you to do our bidding: P. ἡμῶν… οὐκ ἀγρίως ἐπιταττόντων ποιεῖν ἃ ἂν κελεύωμεν (Plato, Crito, 52A).
