Xenophon
“Let’s banish these misleaders from among us, and when we do, we shouldn’t fill their places from our Persian peerage alone. As our journey continues, we’re going to be joined by many races of men.

Xenophon, Cyrus the Great: The Arts of Leadership and War

Xenophon
“Misleaders are slow to work hard but quick to act on greed. They convince their men that dishonest behavior leads to great wealth.”
Xenophon, Cyrus the Great: The Arts of Leadership and War
