Ars Amatoria
Another version of the proverb, "fortis Fortuna adiuvat" ("fortune favours the strong/brave"), was used in Terence's comedy play "Phormio", line 203. Ovid further parodies the phrase at I.608 of his didactic work, Ars Amatoria, writing "audentem Forsque Venusque iuvat" or "Venus, like Fortune, favors the bold."
