MYRONIDES Noted Athenian general in the fifth century B.C.

40.1 Myronides, conducting a campaign against the Boeotians, gave orders to the Athenians for an invasion of the enemy’s territory. When the hour was near, and the captains said that not all were present as yet, he said, All are present that intend to fight. And, leading them into battle before their ardour had cooled, he won a victory over the enemy. At Oenophyta in Boeotia, 457 (?) B.C. (Thucydides, i. 108). Cf. also Moralia, 345 D; Diodorus, xi. 31. A simliar remark is attributed to Leonidas by Plutarch, Moralia, 225 D, and to Timotheus by Polyaenus, Strategemata, iii. 10. 3.

ARISTEIDES Athenian statesman, sixth and fifth centuries B.C.

41.1 Aristeides the Just was always an independent in politics, and avoided political parties, on the ground that influence derived from friends encourages wrongdoing. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Aristeides, chap. ii. (319 F).
41.2 At one time when the Athenians had impetuously determined to vote on ostracism, an ignorant country fellow, holding his potsherd, approached him and bade him write on it the name of Aristeides. Why, said he, do you know Aristeides ? And when the man said that he did not know him, but was irritated at his being called the Just, Aristeides said never a word more, but wrote the name on the potsherd, and gave it back to him. Cf. Plutarch’s, Life of Aristeides, chap. vii (323 A); Cornelius Nepos, Aristeides, i. 3.
