"You know as well as we do that right, as the world goes, is only in question between equals in power, while the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must." http://www.gutenberg.org/files/7142/7142-h/7142-h.htm#link2H...
(Thucydides, book 5, Melian conference) (tl;dr: the Athenians took Melos, killed the adult males, sold the remaining Melians as slaves, repopulated the island. Eventually they made the Venus de Milo. And so it goes.) |
