Such are my views on the expeditionary force. With regard to the supply of
money, you have money, men of Athens; you have more than any other nation has for military
purposes. But you appropriate it yourselves, to suit your own pleasure. Now if
you will spend it on the campaign, you have no need of a further supply; if not,
you have—or rather, you have no supply at all.
“What!” someone will cry, “do you actually move to
use this money for military purposes?” Of course I do not.
