ἀλλʼ ἐκεῖνον μέν, ὥσπερ ἥν ἄξιος παραπλὴξ τὴν διάνοιαν ὥν, κατελύσατε εἰκότως· τούτοις δὲ ἀποχρησάτω μηδὲν παθεῖν κακὸν παραδόξους λόγους μελετῶσι, καὶ μηδὲ λείψανον ἐῶσιν ἡμῖν τι τῶν πραγμάτων, ἀλλὰ καὶ τούτων φθονοῦσι, πράττειν δʼ ἀεὶ βουλομένοις, ἕως ἂν τὸ Θηβαίων πολιτεύσωνται πολίτευμα, μηλόβοτον ἡμῶν γενέσθαι τὴν χώραν καὶ κατασκαφῆναι τὴν πόλιν ἀναγκάσαντες. οὐ γάρ, εἰ κακῶς ἔχει τὰ πράγματα, διὰ τοῦτο οὐδέν, ὅπως μὴ χεῖρον ἔξει, φροντιστέον.
