"Thrasyllus, orang Sinis memohon dirham Antigonus. "Itu," katanya, "terlalu sedikit untuk diberikan seorang raja." "Kenapa, kalau begitu," kata yang lain, "beri aku bakat." "Dan itu," katanya, "terlalu banyak untuk diterima oleh orang Sinis (atau, untuk seekor anjing).""

Versi Bahasa Inggris

Thrasyllus the Cynic begged a drachm of Antigonus. "That," said he, "is too little for a king to give." "Why, then," said the other, "give me a talent." "And that," said he, "is too much for a Cynic (or, for a dog) to receive."
