Even if you were a softy, you took the mattock, you dug,  
  you were willing to work. In this part he most shows himself a man,  
  whoever tolerates making himself equal to another,  
  rich to poor. For this man will bear a change of fortune  
  with self-control. You have given a sufficient proof of your character.  
  I wish only that you remain as you are.
Gorgias. - Dyskolos
