 1     II, VII|          but on him who kills a tyrant. Thus we see that the institutions
 2     II, XI |        been under the rule of a tyrant.~Among the points in which
 3     II, XII|        who were now playing the tyrant the old constitution was
 4    III, I  |        but the oligarchy or the tyrant. And the legislator or statesman
 5    III, III|          on the ground that the tyrant, and not the state, contracted
 6    III, IV |        hungry when he was not a tyrant," meaning that he could
 7    III, X  |       Or the one best man? Or a tyrant? Any of these alternatives
 8    III, X  |         were, all the acts of a tyrant must of necessity be just;
 9    III, XIV|        a king and not such as a tyrant would employ, that is to
10    III, XIV|        that they chose Pittacus tyrant, for he reproaches his fellow-citizens
11    III, XIV|      made the low-born Pittacus tyrant of the spiritless and ill-fated
12    III, XV |      they appointed dictator or tyrant. Thus, when Dionysius asked
13     IV, IV | correspond to the edicts of the tyrant; and the demagogue is to
14     IV, IV |          the flatterer with the tyrant, the demagogue with democracies
15      V, IV |     notables, killed Phoxus the tyrant, and then seized the government.
16      V, IV |   conspirators in expelling the tyrant Periander, transferred the
17      V, VI |       who afterwards came to be tyrant. But revolutions which commence
18      V, VI |        often ends in becoming a tyrant, as Timophanes did at Corinth;
19      V, X  |     virtuous actions; whereas a tyrant is chosen from the people
20      V, X  |       and oppression. Whereas a tyrant, as has often been repeated,
21      V, X  |        desires they differ; the tyrant is desirous of riches, the
22      V, X  |     king are citizens, but of a tyrant mercenaries.~That tyranny
23      V, X  |      for by wealth only can the tyrant maintain either his guard
24      V, X  |        himself. He attacked the tyrant for his sister’s sake, and
25      V, X  |   formed against Periander, the tyrant of Ambracia, because, when
26      V, X  |    drunk. Even the friends of a tyrant will sometimes attack him
27      V, X  |         regard the killing of a tyrant simply as an extraordinary
28      V, X  |        men; he who would kill a tyrant must be prepared to lose
29      V, X  |         at once thought to be a tyrant. In hereditary monarchies
30      V, X  |       want to have him, but the tyrant lasts, whether they like
31      V, XI |        possible; viz., that the tyrant should lop off those who
32      V, XI |         have the same object. A tyrant should also endeavor to
33      V, XI |         out. Another art of the tyrant is to sow quarrels among
34      V, XI |       their whole property. The tyrant is also fond of making war
35      V, XI |         the characteristic of a tyrant is to distrust his friends,
36      V, XI |         them, as well as by the tyrant, the flatterer is held in
37      V, XI |       is the demagogue; and the tyrant also has those who associate
38      V, XI |       It is characteristic of a tyrant to dislike every one who
39      V, XI |        power. Another mark of a tyrant is that he likes foreigners
40      V, XI |       Such are the notes of the tyrant and the arts by which he
41      V, XI |        to the three aims of the tyrant. These are, (1) the humiliation
42      V, XI |      mistrust among them; for a tyrant is not overthrown until
43      V, XI |      against other men; (3) the tyrant desires that his subjects
44      V, XI |     heads the whole policy of a tyrant may be summed up, and to
45      V, XI |      king. But of one thing the tyrant must be careful; he must
46      V, XI |     foundation, in all else the tyrant should act or appear to
47      V, XI |        the public rather than a tyrant; nor need he fear that,
48      V, XI |       more advantageous for the tyrant when he goes from home,
49      V, XI |         attack his power; and a tyrant, when he is absent from
50      V, XI |  blessed lot. In these things a tyrant should if possible be moderate,
51      V, XI |        for a drunken and drowsy tyrant is soon despised and attacked;
52      V, XI |         as though he were not a tyrant, but the guardian of the
53      V, XI |       from him all at once. The tyrant should abstain from all
54      V, XI |        is affected. Therefore a tyrant ought either not to commit
55      V, XI |       poor men and of rich, the tyrant should lead both to imagine
56      V, XI |       the general policy of the tyrant is obvious. He ought to
57      V, XI | subjects in the light, not of a tyrant, but of a steward and a
58      V, XII|    Periander, although he was a tyrant, was a great soldier. Third
59      V, XII|         all; for Gelo continued tyrant for seven years, and died
60    VII, II |       most highly the life of a tyrant deem that city the happiest
