Quoted text:
“Lakedaimonian youths drink only enough to direct the thinking of all towards cheery hopefulness and temperate laughter… The way of life of the Lakedaimonians is evenly ordered: to eat and drink the appropriate amount to render them capable of thought and labor. No day is set aside for soaking the body through immoderate draughts.”[1]
