Ubi idem et maximus et honestissimus amor est, aliquando praestat morte jungi, quam vita distrahi → Where indeed the greatest and most honourable love exists, it is much better to be joined by death, than separated by life.

Valerius Maximus, De Factis Dictisque

Greek Monolingual

οἰστροδίνητος, -ον (Α)
(ποιητ. τ.)
1. αυτός που στριφογυρίζει με μανία εξαιτίας τσιμπήματος από οίστρο

[ΕΤΥΜΟΛ. < οἶστρος + -δίνητος (< δινῶ < δίνη), πρβλ. ιπποδίνητος, σφονδυλοδίνητος].
