Aristotle, so-called from a place [where he originated].[1]
The Pisidian [writes]: "with what sort of generals or Stagirites did you invade the land of prosperous barbarians?"[2]
"Altogether he would be swallowing down the Stagirite more than the Paeanian orator [swallows down] the [son] of Oloros".[3] That is, [more than] Demosthenes [surpasses] Thucydides.
