  • "οὔτε γὰρ συνανθρωπίζετε οὔτε διαγινώσκετε οὐδένα τῶν ὁμιλούντων, αἰσθήσει τε πολλῷ ὑστεροῦντεσ ἀργῶσ καὶ ἀφυλάκτωσ ζῆτε, λοιδόρου δὲ καὶ παμφάγου τοῦ ζῴου πεφυκότοσ, ἔτι δὲ ταλαιπώρου καὶ γυμνοῦ τὸν βίον, ἄμφω ταῦτα μελετᾶτε, κακολόγοι καὶ βοροὶ πρόσ τε τούτοισ ἄνοικοι καὶ ἀνέστιοι βιοῦντεσ. (Athenaeus, The Deipnosophists, Book 13, book 13, chapter 9135)
  • πολλοῖσι δὲ ἐσ ἀναισθησίην καὶ μώρωσιν ἡ γνώμη Ῥέπει, ὄκωσ ἀγνῶτεσ ἁπάντων, ἢ ἐπιλήσμονεσ ἑωυτέων, βίον ζώωσι ζωώδεα· ξυντρέπεται δὲ καὶ τοῦ σκήνεοσ ἐσ πονηρὸν ἡ ἕξισ· χροιὴ μελάγχλωροσ, ἢν μὴ διεξίῃ κάτω ἡ χολὴ, ἀλλὰ ἀναχέηται ξὺν τῷ αἵματι ἐσ τὸ πᾶν· βοροὶ μὲν, ἰσχνοὶ δέ· ὕπνοσ γὰρ αὐτέοισι τε πόσει οὔτε βρωτῷ συγκρατέει τὰ μέλεα· ἀγρυπνίη δὲ σκίδνησι ἐσ τὴν ἔξω φορήν· τοιγαρο ῦν κοιλίη ξηρὴ οὐδὲν διεῖσα. (Aretaeus, The Extant Works of Aretaeus, The Cappadocian., , 50)
  • ἐπ’ ἐνίοισι γὰρ ἐάσι δὴ ἦχοιὤτων, καὶ βόμβοι, μέχρι δή γε σαλπίγγων τε καὶ αὐλῶν· ἢν ἐσ αὔξησιν ἡ νοῦσοσ γίγνηται, φυσώδεεσ, ἀσώδεεσ, βοροὶ καὶ λάβροι ἐν τῇ ἐδωδῇ. (Aretaeus, The Extant Works of Aretaeus, The Cappadocian., , 82)
