Galenus de usu partium XI 14 Vol. III p. 899 K. τὸ δ’ ἐξ ἐπιμέτρου ποτὲ καὶ τῆς εὐμορφίας στοχάζεσθαι, ἀναγκαῖον ὑπάρχον καὶ αὐτὸ δὴ γινώσκεσθαι τοῖς περὶ φύσιν [ἔχουσιν], οὐδαμοῦ διὰ τῶν ἔμπροσθεν λόγων εἰρηκώς, νῦν ᾠήθην μάλιστα προσήκειν εἰπεῖν. καὶ γὰρ οὖν καὶ αἱ κατὰ τὰ γένεια τρίχες οὐ μόνον σκέπουσι τὰς γενύας, ἀλλὰ καὶ πρὸς κόσμον συντελοῦσι. σεμνότερον γὰρ τὸ ἄῤῥεν φαίνεται, καὶ μάλιστα ἐν τῷ προϊέναι κατὰ τὴν ἡλικίαν, εἰ πανταχόθεν αὐτῷ καλῶς αὗται περικέοιντο. καὶ διὰ τοῦτο τά τε μῆλα καλούμενα καὶ τὴν ῥῖνα ψιλὰ καὶ γυμνὰ τριχῶν ἡ φύσις ἀπέλιπεν· ἄγριον γὰρ ἂν οὕτω καὶ θηριῶδες ὅλον ἐγένετο τὸ πρόσωπον, οὐδαμῶς οἰκεῖον ἡμέρῳ καὶ πολιτικῷ ζῴῳ.
