===Empedocles===
Around 430 BCE, the philosopher Empedocles wrote a letter to Euripedes, praising him for writing Philoctetes, Dictys and Theristai, though said that Medea was Euripedes' best work and that the play would outlive both of them.
He then advised Euripedes to not fear his passion, and that fully embracing either love or strife will end the world, with chaos reigning; his last piece of advice was to say that life existed only in the balance, and the drastic must sometimes be performed.Empedocles (tale)
