It is well to hurt the enemy by deceit, by raids, ог by hunger, and never be enticed into a pitched battle, which is a demonstration more of luck than of bravery.
Ἢ δόλοις ἢ ἐφόδοις ἢ λιμῷ τοὺς πολεμίους βλάπτειν καλόν· οὐχὶ πάντως πρὸς πόλεμον ἐκκαλεῖσθαι δημόσιον, ἔνθα πλέον τῆς τύχης ἢ τῆς ἀνδρείας ἐστὶν ἡ ἐπίδειξις.
