τῷ πολέμῳ κρατηθέντες ἐδέξαντο φρουρὰν ὑπ᾽ Ἀντιπάτρου: Μενύλλου δὲ τοῦ τῆς φρουρᾶς ἄρχοντος χρήματα τῷ Φωκίωνι διδόντος , ἀγανακτήσας εἶπε μήτε ἐκεῖνον Ἀλεξάνδρου βελτίονα εἶναι, καὶ χείρονα τὴν αἰτίαν, ἐφ᾽ λήψεται νῦν τότε μὴ δεξάμενος.
Ἀντίπατρος δὲ ἔφη, ὡς δυεῖν αὐτῷ φίλων Ἀθήνησιν ὄντων οὔτε Φωκίωνα λαβεῖν πέπεικεν οὔτε Δημάδην διδοὺς ἐμπέπληκεν.
ἀξιοῦντος δὲ Ἀντιπάτρου ποιῆσαί τι τῶν μὴ δικαίων αὐτὸν ‘οὐ δύνασαι’ εἶπεν ‘Ἀντίπατρε καὶ φίλῳ Φωκίωνι χρῆσθαι καὶ κόλακι. ’
