‘“Well, do you know any sort of man,” he asked, “more stupid than people who just recite Homer from memory?” “No, indeed,” answered Niceratus; “not I, I am sure.” “No,” said Socrates; “and the reason is clear: they do not know the inner meaning of the poems.”’ Xen. Sym. 3.6

Spartans on the Athenians: "Αsked by someone why the Lacedaemonians don't get drunk, Leotychidas answered: "So that others may not think on our behalf but we on theirs" History has written how well these sophistries have served the Athenian drunkards.
