To Philip, I
The political bond Philip is urged to cultivate with Athens and the Greeks.
You may well believe me in what I have said concerning Athens;
yet if you are able to win friendships and goodwill, all will praise the wisdom shown by you.
on the contrary, I must try to urge you to cultivate friendly relations and intimacy with her.
Cyropaedia
Voluntary loyalty and reciprocal goodwill that Cyrus seeks to create through mercy, favors, and fair settlement.
for I now count you among my friends;
From whom could you ever get such friendship as you now can from us?
From those, I presume, said he, who have never been my enemies, if I would do them such favours as you now bid me do you.
