To win the people, always cook them some savoury that pleases them.Aristophanes

[Y]ou possess all the attributes of a demagogue; a screeching, horrible voice, a perverse, crossgrained nature and the language of the market-place. In you all is united which is needful for governing.Aristophanes
3
You [demagogues] are like the fishers for eels; in still waters they catch nothing, but if they thoroughly stir up the slime, their fishing is good; in the same way it's only in troublous times that you line your pockets.Aristophanes
4
Shrines! Shrines! Surely you don't believe in the gods. What's your argument? Where's your proof?Aristophanes
