Demosthenes, Exordia (ed. Norman W. DeWitt, Norman J. DeWitt), exordium 30, section 1 (search)
It was your duty, men of Athens, before going to war to have considered what armament would be available for the coming campaign, but if, as a matter of fact, war was not foreseen, it was your duty to have considered also the question of armament on that occasion when you were deliberating for the first time about war after it had become certain. If you shall say that you have commissioned many armies which your commandersPossibly Chares and Charidemus, who failed to save Olynthus in 348 B.C. have ruined, no one will accept this excuse of you. For the same people cannot both absolve those in charge of their operations and claim that through fault of these men these operations are not succeeding.
