Philippians 2:21
For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's.


When they (the Athenians, after a battle with Xerxes) came to the Isthmus, and every officer took a bullet from the altar to inscribe upon it the names of those who had done the best service, every one put himself in the first place, and Themistocles in the second.

(Plutarch.)
