Neither Quotes by Xenophanes
All Neither quotes Xenophanes’s page
Neither gods nor mortals hold absolute truth, a claim Xenophanes articulated to challenge complacent mythos. His fragments remind us that certainty breeds hubris, urging a humble search for knowledge that respects the limits of human perception. Readers encounter a timeless warning against dogmatic certainty.
![“...for our wisdom is better than the strength of men or of horses. ... nor is it right to prefer strength to excellent wisdom. For if there should be in the city [any athlete whose skill] is honoured more than strength ... the city would not on that account be any better governed.” quote by Xenophanes](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/e65/xenophanes-16062_accounts_for-our-wisdom-is-better-than-the-streng_36482.jpg)
