Thucydides Quotes

You May Be Sure That We Are As Well Aware As You Of The Difficulty Of Contending Against Your Power And Fortune, Unless The Terms Be Equal. But We Trust That The Gods May Grant Us Fortune As Good As Yours, Since We Are Just Men Fighting Against Unjust, And That What We Want In Power Will Be Made Up By The Alliance Of The Lacedaemonians, Who Are Bound, If Only For Very Shame, To Come To The Aid Of Their Kindred. Our Confidence, Therefore, After All Is Not So Utterly Irrational.
