2.48 After he returned home he made no change in anything touching his life and his manner of living on account of so many successes and victories. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Agesilaus, chap. xix. (606 B-C).

2.49 Seeing that some of the citizens thought themselves to be somebody and gave themselves great airs because they kept a racing stud, he persuaded his sister Cynisca to enter a chariot in the races at Olympia, for he wished to demonstrate to the Greeks that this sort of thing was no sign of excellence, but only of having money and being willing to spend it. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Agesilaus, chap. xx. (606 D); Xenophon, Agesilaus, 9. 6; Pausanias, iii. 8. 1-2; iii. 15. 1; v. 12. 5; vi. 1. 6; and the epigram in the Greek Anthology, xiii. 16 (L.C.L. v. p. 10), which records Cynisca’s victory. Fragments of the original inscription, which was cut on the pedestal on which the statue of Cynisca stood, were found in the excavations at Olympia. See J.G. Frazer, Pausanias, iv. p. 3; or Pausanias, ed. Hitzig and Blumner, ii. p. 532.

2.50 He had with him Xenophon the philosopher, who was treated with marked consideration, and he urged Xenophon to send for his sons, and bring them up in Sparta, where they would be taught the fairest of all lessons-to rule and to be ruled. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Agesilaus, chap. xx. (606 D), and Diogenes Laertius, ii. 51 and 54.

2.51 On one other occasion he was asked what was the especial reason why the Spartans were fortunate above all other peoples, and he replied, Because they, above all others, make it their practice to rule and to be ruled. Cf. Moralia, 215 C, infra; Plutarch’s Life of Lycurgus, chap. xxx. (58 C), and Life of Agesilaus, chap. i. (596 D); Xenophon, Agesilaus, 2. 16.
