'By the gates, blind herald who was seeking recovery of runaway slaves and as was usual spoke heralding not to take them away from Thebes and not to hide them but to bring them back and keep them secure, met Epameinondas. The older people, transcented to be the future what it was heard from the herald and the younger stayed quiet not to appear that they were witholding Epameinondas from marching because of cowardness. And Epameinondas to the ones who advocated to observe the omens said: only one omen is best, to fight for the defence of the fatherland.' From Diodoros' of Sicily Library of History. Book 15:52(3-5).
