  • ὁ γὰρ ἀγαθὸσ οἰκονόμοσ, εἰδὼσ ὅτι οὐδὲν οὕτω λυσιτελέσ τε καὶ κερδαλέον ἐστίν, ὡσ τὸ μαχόμενον τοὺσ πολεμίουσ νικᾶν, οὐδὲ οὕτωσ ἀλυσιτελέσ τε καὶ ζημιῶδεσ, ὡσ τὸ ἡττᾶσθαι, προθύμωσ μὲν τὰ πρὸσ τὸ νικᾶν συμφέροντα ζητήσει καὶ παρασκευάσεται, ἐπιμελῶσ δὲ τὰ πρὸσ τὸ ἡττᾶσθαι φέροντα σκέψεται καὶ φυλάξεται, ἐνεργῶσ δ’, ἂν τὴν παρασκευὴν ὁρᾷ νικητικὴν οὖσαν, μαχεῖται, οὐχ ἥκιστα δὲ τούτων, ἐὰν ἀπαράσκευοσ ᾖ, φυλάξεται συνάπτειν μάχην. (Xenophon, Memorabilia, , chapter 4 12:4)
