  • μήτε καλῷ τὸ σῶμα μήτ’ ἰσχυρῷ τὴν θεὸν χαίρουσαν ἀλλὰ φρονίμῳ καὶ δικαίῳ ποιήσασ, καὶ πάλιν τὸν Ὀδυσσέα φάσκουσα μὴ περιορᾶν μηδὲ προλείπειν οὕνεκ’ ἐπητήσ ἐστι καὶ ἀγχίνοοσ καὶ ἐχέφρων, ἐνδείκνυται μόνον εἶναι τῶν ἡμετέρων θεοφιλὲσ καὶ θεῖον ἀρετήν, εἴγε δὴ τὰ ὅμοια χαίρειν τοῖσ ὁμοίοισ πέφυκεν. (Plutarch, Quomodo adolescens poetas audire debeat, chapter, section 11 9:1)
  • τῷ σε καὶ οὐ δύναμαι προλιπεῖν δύστηνον ἐόντα, οὕνεκ’ ἐπητήσ ἐσσι καὶ ἀγχίνοοσ καὶ ἐχέφρων. (Homer, Odyssey, Book 13 40:3)
