Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Everyone should strive to live a life of silence, like cattle, which nature has designed to be submissive to their stomachs. The glory of riches and appearance is fleeting, but the glory of prowess is distinguished and everlasting.

#2 Nature shows different paths to different people. It is a splendid thing to do well for the advantage of your commonwealth, but it is also acceptable to speak well. And while it is not an equal glory that attends the writer of affairs and their author, it is still difficult to write about the conduct of affairs.

#3 L. Catilina, a nobleman, had great strength of mind and body, but a wicked and crooked disposition. He spent his young manhood fighting internal wars, slaughter, seizures, and civil disharmony. He was incited by the community’s corrupt morals.

#4 The Romans were a militia of free men who, after they had conquered their enemies, turned their attention to protecting their freedom and their fatherland. They had a statutory command, and the name of the command was kingship.
