National Differences

Plutarch, Life of Themistocles 27.2 (tr. Bernadotte Perrin):
Men's customs differ; different people honour different practices; but all honour the exaltation and maintenance of their own peculiar ways.

νόμοι διαφέρουσιν ἀνθρώπων· ἄλλα δ᾿ ἄλλοις καλά· καλὸν δὲ πᾶσι τὰ οἰκεῖα κοσμεῖν καὶ σώζειν.
