  • ἓν γάρ τι καὶ τοῦτο τῶν ἄλλων καλλωπισμάτων αὐταῖσ δοκεῖ, ἢν λέγηται ὡσ πεπαιδευμέναι τὲ εἰσιν καὶ φιλόσοφοι καὶ ποιοῦσιν ᾄσματα οὐ πολὺ τῆσ Σαπφοῦσ ἀποδέοντα ‐ διὰ δὴ ταῦτα μισθωτοὺσ καὶ αὗται περιάγονται ῥήτορασ καὶ γραμματικοὺσ καὶ φιλοσόφουσ, ἀκροῶνται δ’ αὐτῶν ‐ πηνίκα; (Lucian, De mercede, (no name) 36:3)
  • ἔμελλον δέ που καὶ μηδενὸσ ἐξελαύνοντοσ αἱ πολλαὶ τῷ κοινῷ νομίσματι συνεκπεσεῖσθαι, διάθεσιν τῶν ἔργων οὐκ ἐχόντων, τὸ γάρ σιδηροῦν ἀγώγιμον οὐκ ἦν πρὸσ τοὺσ ἄλλουσ Ἕλληνασ οὐδ’ εἶχε τιμὴν καταγελώμενον, ὥστε οὐδὲ πρίασθαί τι τῶν ξενικῶν καὶ ῥωπικῶν ὑπῆρχεν, οὐδ’ εἰσέπλει φόρτοσ ἐμπορικὸσ εἰσ τοὺσ λιμένασ, οὐδὲ ἐπέβαινε τῆσ Λακωνικῆσ οὐ σοφιστὴσ λόγων, οὐ μάντισ ἀγυρτικόσ, οὐχ ἑταιρῶν τροφεύσ, οὐ χρυσῶν τίσ, οὐκ ἀργυρῶν καλλωπισμάτων δημιουργόσ, ἅτε δὴ νομίσματοσ οὐκ ὄντοσ. (Plutarch, Lycurgus, chapter 9 3:2)
