[11]

Wealth they alone of the Greeks and non-Greeks are capable of possessing. If some city is rich in ship-timber, where will it distribute it without the consent of the rulers of the sea? Again if some city is rich in iron, copper, or flax, where will it distribute without the consent of the rulers of the sea? However, it is from these very things that I have my ships: timber from one place, iron from another, copper from another, flax from another, wax from another.

Xenophon. Xenophon in Seven Volumes, 7. E. C. Marchant. Harvard University Press, Cambridge, MA; William Heinemann, Ltd., London. 1984.
