CORNELIUS NEPOS Roman author and historian (1st century BC) Hateful is the power, and pitiable is the life, of those who wish to be feared rather than loved.       - [Tyranny] No evil is great if it is the last.       - [Evil] Peace is obtained by war.       - [Proverbs] Power is detested, and miserable is the life of him who wishes rather to be feared than to be loved.       - [Government] Tasteful rather than expensive.       - [Proverbs] That evil can never be great which is the last.       - [Death] So that he seemed to depart not from life, but from one home to another.   [Lat., Ut non ex vita, sed ex domo in domum videretur migrare.]       - Atticus [Death] Last Revised: 2007 January 1 Copyright © 1999-2007 John C.
