Aristotles Politics on time and constitutions

• Arist. Pol. III.8.7
• In the case of a person becoming exceptionally
  distinguished for virtue, it would certainly not
  be said that such a man must be banished and got
  out of the way yet nevertheless no doubt men
  would not think that they ought to rule over such
  a man, for that would be the same as if they
  claimed to rule over Zeus, . It remains
  therefore, and this seems to be the natural
  course, for all to obey such a man, gladly, so
  that men of this sort may be kings in cities for
  all time
• Arist. Pol. II.1.5
• It is reciprocal equivalence that keeps a state
  in being. This principle is essential even among
  citizens who are free and equal for they cannot
  hold office simultaneously, but must do so for a
  year at a time or for some other appointed
  period.

Delos and Rome Strabo X.5.4 Although Delos was so
famous, yet it became still more so, and
flourished after the destruction of Corinth by
the Romans. For the merchants resorted thither,
induced by the immunities of the temple, and the
convenience of its harbour. It lies favourably
for those who are sailing from Italy and Greece
to Asia. The general festival held there serves
the purposes of commerce, and the Romans
particularly frequented it even before the
destruction of Corinth.
