Xenophon quotes - page 2
The sweetest of all sounds is praise.
Xenophon
For what the horse does under compulsion, as Simon also observes, is done without understanding; and there is no beauty in it either, any more than if one should whip and spur a dancer.
Xenophon
On making prisoners of our generals, they expected that we should perish from want of direction and order. It is incumbent, therefore, on our present commanders to be far more vigilant than our former ones, and on those under command to be far more orderly, and more obedient to their officers, at present than they were before...On the very day that such resolution is passed, they will see before them ten thousand Clearchuses instead of one.
Xenophon
