A quotation from Euripides

CHORUS: Many are the forms of what is unknown.
   Much that the gods achieve is surprise.
   What we look for does not come to pass;
   God finds a way for what none foresaw.
   Such was the end of this story.
 
[ΧΟΡΟΣ: πολλαὶ μορφαὶ τῶν δαιμονίων,
   πολλὰ δ᾽ ἀέλπτως κραίνουσι θεοί:
   καὶ τὰ δοκηθέντ᾽ οὐκ ἐτελέσθη,
   τῶν δ᾽ ἀδοκήτων πόρον ηὗρε θεός.
   τοιόνδ᾽ ἀπέβη τόδε πρᾶγμα.]

Euripides (485?-406? BC) Greek tragic dramatist
Helen [Ἑλένη], l. 1688ff, final lines (412 BC) [tr. Lattimore (1956)]

A quotation from Shakespeare

KING RICHARD: Not all the water in the rough rude sea
   Can wash the balm off from an anointed king.
   The breath of worldly men cannot depose
   The deputy elected by the Lord.
   For every man that Bolingbroke hath pressed
   To lift shrewd steel against our golden crown,
   God for His Richard hath in heavenly pay
   A glorious angel. Then, if angels fight,
   Weak men must fall, for heaven still guards the right.

William Shakespeare (1564-1616) English dramatist and poet
Richard II, Act 3, sc. 2, l. 55ff (3.2.55) (1595)

A quotation from Homer

For who could see the passage of a goddess
Unless she wished his mortal eyes aware?
 
                    [τίς ἂν θεὸν οὐκ ἐθέλοντα
ὀφθαλμοῖσιν ἴδοιτ᾽ ἢ ἔνθ᾽ ἢ ἔνθα κιόντα]

Homer (fl. 7th-8th C. BC) Greek author
The Odyssey [Ὀδύσσεια], Book 10, l. 575ff (10.575-576) [Odysseus] (c. 700 BC) [tr. Fitzgerald (1961)]
