Quotes by Aeschylus (525-456 B.C.), Frag. 146 (trans. by Plumptre).

"Of all the gods, Death only craves not gifts:
Nor sacrifice, nor yet drink-offering poured
Avails; no altars hath he, nor is soothed
By hymns of praise. From him alone of all
The powers of heaven Persuasion holds aloof."

By Aeschylus (525-456 B.C.), Frag. 146 (trans. by Plumptre).
