Caesar is not above the grammarians.
It is the duty of a good shepherd to shear his sheep, not to skin them.
I shall always be consistent and never change my ways so long as I am in my senses; but for the sake of precedent the Senate should beware of binding itself to support the acts of any man, since he might through some mischance suffer a change.
Let all the poisons that lurk in the mud, Hatch out.
To be a good shepherd is to shear the flock, not skin it!
Let them hate me, provided they respect my conduct.
