Ζῆν οὐκ ἄξιος, ὅτῳ μηδὲ εἷς ἐστι χρηστὸς φίλοςLife is not worth living if you do not have at least one friend.

Democritus, DK 68b22

Greek Monolingual

(ΑM μαγαλαυχῶ), -έω) μεγάλαυχος
καυχιέμαι, κομπάζω, υπερηφανεύομαι (α. «ἡ γλώσσα μικρὸν μέλος ἐστὶ καὶ μεγαλαυχεῖ», ΚΔ
β. «κατὰ πάντα δὴ ταῦτα σύ γε μεγαλαυχούμενος», Πλάτ.)
μσν.-αρχ.
(με αιτ.) θεωρώ κάτι ως καύχημα («παρὰ γὰρ τῆς ἐμῆς ταπεινώσεως οὐδὲν ὄφελος κἂν αὐτὸς μεγαλαυχῇς ἡμᾶς ἐξ ἀγάπης», Στουδ. Θεόδ.).
