Rome, November 54 BCedit
The earlier of your two letters is full of irritability and complainings, and you say you gave another of the same sort the day before to Labienus, who has not yet arrivedbut I have nothing to say in answer to it, for your more recent letter has obliterated all trace of vexation from my mind.

The Idolatrous Dog
WE shall never know why a feeling of shame attends certain harmless sensations, certain profoundly innocent tastes and distastes. Why, for example, are we abashed when we are cold, and boastful when we are not? There is no merit or distinction in being insensitive to cold, or in wearing thinner clothing than one's neighbour.

Parga! Souli! craignez les Francs!

La Grèce ne doit rien attendre

Craignez les Francs! tous ils fléchissent
Sous des rois qui les avilissent.

Dans l’aristocratie, la souveraine puissance est entre les mains d’un certain nombre de personnes. Ce sontelles qui font les lois & qui les font exécuter; & le reste du peuple n’est tout au plus à leur égard, que comme dans une monarchie les sujets sont à l’égard du monarque.
On n’y doit point donner le suffrage par sort; on n’en auroit que les inconvéniens.
