GIGA

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]

No government is safe unless it is protected by the good will of the people.
      - [Patriotism]

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]
