“And which do you think are the better, his slaves or your gentlefolk?”“My gentlefolk, I think.”“Then is it not disgraceful that you with your gentlefolk should be in distress, while he is kept in affluence by his meaner household?”“Of course his dependants are artisans, while mine have had a liberal education.”
Xenophon. Xenophon in Seven Volumes, 4. E. C. Marchant. Harvard University Press, Cambridge, MA; William Heinemann, Ltd., London. 1923.
