Henry St John, 1st Viscount Bolingbroke: "Apa yang dikatakan Anacharsi...
"Apa yang dikatakan Anacharsis tentang pokok anggur cukup tepat dikatakan tentang kemakmuran. Dia menghasilkan tiga anggur mabuk, kesenangan, dan kesedihan; dan bahagia itu jika yang terakhir bisa menyembuhkan kerusakan yang dulu berhasil. Ketika penderitaan gagal memiliki efek yang seharusnya, kasus ini menjadi putus asa."

Versi Bahasa Inggris
What Anacharsis said of the vine may aptly enough be said of prosperity. She bears the three grapes of drunkenness, pleasure, and sorrow; and happy is it if the last can cure the mischief which the former work. When afflictions fail to have their due effect, the case is desperate.
