Thus, If There Is Anyone Who Is Confident That He Can Advise Me As To The Best Advantage Of The State In This Campaign Which I Am About To Conduct, Let Him Not Refuse His Services To The State, But Come With Me Into Macedonia.

If Anyone Is Reluctant To Do This And Prefers The Leisure Of The City To The Hardships Of Campaigning, Let Him Not Steer The Ship From On Shore.

Avarice And Luxury, Those Evils Which Have Been The Ruin Of Every Great State.
