Help[Facts] Penthesilea
Penthesilea was an Amazon queen. I'd like to know what her name means (suppose it's Greek).

From Greek words "PENTHOS" (mourning, grief) + "EILO" (grip, squeeze, wring, grab, grasp), the name PENTHESILEA literally means "mournful grip".
“ If you live by nature, you will never be poor; if you live by what men think, you will never be rich. Nature demands little, opinion a great deal.”
(EPICUROS 341-270 BCE)
