ἐπεὶ δ᾽ οὖν, ἔφη, αὕτη ἡ μάχη καταλείπεται, ἐν ᾗ προθυμίας μᾶλλον ἢ τέχνης ἔργον ἐστί, πῶς ἡμῖν οὐχ ἡδέως πρὸς τούσδε τοὺς ὁμοτίμους ἀγωνιστέον; ὅπου γε τὰ μὲν ἆθλα τῆς ἀρετῆς ἴσα πρόκειται, παραβαλλόμενοι δὲ οὐκ ἴσα εἰς τὸν κίνδυνον ἴμεν, ἀλλ᾽ οὗτοι μὲν ἔντιμον, ὅσπερ μόνος ἥδιστος, βίον, ἡμεῖς δὲ ἐπίπονον μέν, ἄτιμον δέ, ὅσπερ οἶμαι χαλεπώτατος.
Xenophon. Xenophontis opera omnia, vol. 4. Oxford, Clarendon Press. 1910 (repr. 1970).
