Julius Caesar (100-44 BCE)
“You take favors for offenses, and insults for benefits, are insolent and restless in peace, and cowardly and effeminate in war.”
- A segment of Julius Caesar’s speech to the citizens of Munda and Ursao in Spain, from Julius Caesar’s War Commentaries (The Spanish War, chapter 42), translated by W. A. McDevitte and W. S. Bohn, 2014.
