CHORUS: I say that mortals who have no experience
   Of and have never had children
   Have a better chance for happiness
   Than those who bear them.

ΚΥΚΛΩΨ: καί φημι βροτῶν οἵτινές εἰσιν
   πάμπαν ἄπειροι μηδ᾿ ἐφύτευσαν
   παῖδας προφέρειν εἰς εὐτυχίαν
   τῶν γειναμένων.

Euripides (485?-406? BC) Greek tragic dramatist
Medea [Μήδεια], l. 1090ff (431 BC) [tr. @sentantiq (2020)]

A quotation from Euripides

MEDEA: I know indeed what evil I intend to do,
   But stronger than all my afterthoughts is my fury,
   Fury that brings upon mortals the greatest evils.

[ΜΉΔΕΙΑ: Καὶ μανθάνω μὲν οἷα τολμήσω κακά,
   θυμὸς δὲ κρείσσων τῶν ἐμῶν βουλευμάτων,
   ὅσπερ μεγίστων αἴτιος κακῶν βροτοῖς.]

Euripides (485?-406? BC) Greek tragic dramatist
Medea [Μήδεια], l. 1078ff (431 BC) [tr. Warner (1944)]

A quotation from Euripides

MEDEA: Let no one think of me
As humble or weak or passive; let them understand
I am of a different kind: dangerous to my enemies,
Loyal to my friends. To such a life glory belongs.

[ΜΉΔΕΙΑ:μηδείς με φαύλην κἀσθενῆ νομιζέτω
μηδ᾽ ἡσυχαίαν, ἀλλὰ θατέρου τρόπου,
βαρεῖαν ἐχθροῖς καὶ φίλοισιν εὐμενῆ:
810τῶν γὰρ τοιούτων εὐκλεέστατος βίος.]

Euripides (485?-406? BC) Greek tragic dramatist
Medea [Μήδεια], l. 807ff (431 BC) [tr. Vellacott (1963)]

Medea è su Wired grazie all'intervista che mi ha fatto Maria Laura Ramello.

"Tra le pagine di Medea, scopriamo l’umanità, la forza, la determinazione ma anche l’empatia e il desiderio di cura di una donna che il mito ci ha tramandato come folle e assassina dei suoi stessi figli. Sottolineando pregiudizi e disparità si giunge ora a un nuovo epilogo, pieno di speranza."
