Source B: "A sound mind in a sound body"—Thales, Greek philosopher
This English translation of the ancient Greek quote summarizes the belief in Athens there must be a balance between academics and physical exercise.
Source C: The military school in Sparta was designed not to teach reading, but teach fitness, obedience, and courage. From the age of seven, boys were taught survival skills, how to fight, and how to steal what they needed without getting caught. The entire education these boys had was to make them strong soldiers that were prepared for war. The Constitutional Antiquities of Sparta and Athens by Gustav Gilbert, 1893
Source D: Greek philosopher Plutarch describes early education for males in Sparta:
… but as soon as they were seven years old, they were to be enrolled in certain companies and classes; where they all lived under the same order and discipline, doing their exercises, and taking their play together. Of these, he who showed the most conduct and courage was made captain; they had their eyes always upon him, obeyed his orders, and underwent patiently whatsoever punishment he inflicted; so that the whole course of their education was one of continued exercise of a ready and perfect obedience … Reading and writing they gave them just enough to serve their turn; their chief care was to make them good subjects, and reach them to endure pain and conquer in battle. Excerpt from The Lycurgan Reforms by Plutarch
