Plutarch, Sayings Of The Spartans, 20.6
ὅτε δὲ εἰς Ἀρκαδίαν ἐνέβαλε, πυθόμενος βοηθεῖν αὐτοῖς Ἠλείους ἐπέστειλεν αὐτοῖς Ἀρχίδαμος Ἠλείοις· καλὸν ἡσυχία. ἡσυχία ] ἁσυχία Valckenarius When he invaded Arcadia, he learned that the Eleans were supporting the Arcadians, and so he sent this letter to them: Archidamus to the Eleans. Quiet is a good thing. The saying is attributed to Periander by Diogenes Laertius, i. 97.
