A quotation from Horace:

«
Of lingering and gain-seeking make an end;
Think, while there’s time, how soon Death’s pyre may blaze;
And some brief folly mix with prudent ways:
At the fit hour ’tis sweet to unbend.

A quotation from Euripides:

«
ODYSSEUS: He wants to go forth, full of wine and glee,
To his brother Cyclops for wild revelry.

[ΟΔΥΣΣΕΥΣ: ἐπὶ κῶμον ἕρπειν πρὸς κασιγνήτους θέλει
Κύκλωπας ἡσθεὶς τῷδε Βακχίου ποτῷ.]

Oh, are we doing Last Supper versus Bacchanalian/Dionysian revelry discourse tonight? Fun! All the best fights boil down to drinking contests between the Christians and the pagans. Hint: we always win!

Here's my contribution to the discourse: https://www.erosblog.com/2016/12/24/reveling-reveling-reveling/

Post features the painting "The Youth Of Bacchus" by William-Adolphe Bouguereau. The youth are drunk, naked, and worshipping their asses off.
