Zenobius 1.50

Untimely goodwill differs nothing from enmity

English

they say Hippolytus said this to Phaedra when she declared that she loved and cherished him beyond all men.

Ἄκαιρος εὔνοι’ οὐδὲν ἔχθρας διαφέρει

ταύτην φασὶν Ἱππόλυτον εἰπεῖν πρὸς Φαίδραν φάσκουσαν φιλεῖν τε καὶ στέργειν αὐτὸν μάλιστα ὑπὲρ πάντας ἀνθρώπους.
