Knowledge which is divorced from justice, may be called cunning rather than wisdom.
Marcus Tullius CiceroFor even if the allotted space of life be short, it is long enough in which to live honorably and well.
Marcus Tullius CiceroThe men who administer public affairs must first of all see that everyone holds onto what is his, and that private men are never deprived of their goods by public men.
Marcus Tullius CiceroA nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.
