Great Grandfather of Comedy, Author of the First Sex Joke(s), Destroyer and Upholder of Traditions
: A comic playwright or comedy-writer of ancient Athens and a poet of Old Attic Comedy. Eleven of his forty plays survive virtually complete. These provide the most valuable examples of a genre of comic drama known as Old Comedy and are used to define it, along with fragments from dozens of lost plays by Aristophanes and his contemporaries. (From: Wikipedia.org.)

Quote #1 on Political Struggle Quotes >> Anarchism and Hierarchy
“All woes shall then have ending and great Zeus the Thunderer
Shall put above what was below before.
But if the swallows squabble among themselves and fly away
Out of the temple, refusing to agree,
Then The Most Wanton Birds in all the World
They shall be named for ever.”
Source: "Lysistrata," by Aristophanes, with Jack Lindsay (Commentator) and Norman Lindsay (Illustrator), 404 BC.
