Stobaeus eclog. II 7 p. 111, 10. Λέγεσθαι δὲ μὴ ψεύδεσθαι τὸν σοφόν, ἀλλ’ ἐν πᾶσιν ἀληθεύειν· οὐ γὰρ ἐν τῷ λέγειν τι ψεῦδος τὸ ψεύδεσθαι ὑπάρχειν, ἀλλ’ ἐν τῷ διαψευστ⟨ικ⟩ῶς τὸ ψεῦδος λέγειν καὶ ἐπὶ ἀπάτῃ τῶν πλησίον. Τῷ μέντοι ψεύδει ποτὲ συγχρήσεσθαι νομίζουσιν αὐτὸν κατὰ πολλοὺς τρόπους ἄνευ συγκαταθέσεως· καὶ γὰρ κατὰ στρατηγίαν ⟨κατὰ⟩ τῶν ἀντιπάλων καὶ κατὰ τὴν τοῦ συμφέροντος προόρασιν καὶ κατ’ ἄλλας οἰκονομίας τοῦ βίου πολλάς.
