Plutarch, Demetrius, 3.2

ὁ δὲ Ἀντίγονος ἀπιόντας ἤδη τοὺς πρέσβεις ἔχοντας τὰς ἀποκρίσεις μεγάλῃ φωνῇ προσαγορεύσας, καὶ τοῦτο, εἶπεν, ὦ ἄνδρες, ἀπαγγέλλετε περὶ ἡμῶν, ὅτι πρὸς ἀλλήλους οὕτως ἔχομεν, ὡς ἰσχύν τινα πραγμάτων βασιλικῶν καὶ δυνάμεως ἐπίδειξιν οὖσαν τὴν πρὸς υἱὸν ὁμόνοιαν καὶ πίστιν.  Then Antigonus, as the ambassadors were now going away with their answers, called out to them in a loud voice and said: "O men, carry back this report also about us, that this is the way we feel towards one another," implying that no slight vigour in the royal estate and proof of its power were to be seen in his harmonious and trustful relations with his son.

2. Plutarch, Alcibiades, 10.2 (1st cent. CE - 2nd cent. CE) 10.2. Though great doors to public service were opened to him by his birth, his wealth, and his personal bravery in battle; and though he had many friends and followers, he thought that nothing should give him more influence with the people than the charm of his discourse. And that he was a powerful speaker, not only do the comic poets testify, but also the most powerful of orators himself, Dem. 21.145 who says, in his speech Against Meidias, that Alcibiades was a most able speaker in addition to his other gifts.
3. Plutarch, Alexander The Great, 1.2 (1st cent. CE - 2nd cent. CE) 1.2. For it is not Histories that I am writing, but Lives; and in the most illustrious deeds there is not always a manifestation of virtue or vice, nay, a slight thing like a phrase or a jest often makes a greater revelation of character than battles where thousands fall, or the greatest armaments, or sieges of cities.

8. Plutarch, On Praising Oneself Inoffensively, 543b (1st cent. CE - 2nd cent. CE) 543b. to request the other not to mention such points but rather to consider whether one is of worthy character, commits no injuries, and leads a useful life. He that does this does not introduce the praise, but transfers it; and he leaves the impression not of delighting in the encomiasts but of being displeased with them for praise that is unbecoming and bestowed for the wrong reasons, using his better points to draw attention from the worse, not from a desire for praise, but to show how to praise aright. Indeed the words "Not with stone didI encircle Athens nor with brick; survey the wall Ibuilt and you will discover arms, cavalry, and allies" appear to reflect such a procedure. Still more does the saying of Pericles.

14. Pausanias, Description of Greece, 10.24.1 (2nd cent. CE - 2nd cent. CE) 10.24.1. Such was the course of the war. In the fore-temple at Delphi are written maxims useful for the life of men, inscribed by those whom the Greeks say were sages. These were: from Ionia, Thales of Miletus and Bias of Priene ; of the Aeolians in Lesbos, Pittacus of Mitylene ; of the Dorians in Asia, Cleobulus of Lindus ; Solon of Athens and Chilon of Sparta ; the seventh sage, according to the list of Plato, See Plat. Prot. 343a . the son of Ariston, is not Periander, the son of Cypselus, but Myson of Chenae, a village on Mount Oeta. These sages, then, came to Delphi and dedicated to Apollo the celebrated maxims, “Know thyself,” and “Nothing in excess.”
