De Caesare ipso si quaereres quidnam egisset in urbe et in toga, leges multas responderet se et praeclaras tulisse, chirographa vero aut mutaret aut non daret aut, si dedisset, non istas res in actis suis duceret, sed haec ipsa concedo;
If you could ask Caesar himself what he had done in Rome, in a civilian capacity, he would answer that he had passed many fine laws, but as for his handwritten notes, he would either change them or not produce them or, if he did produce them, he would not consider such jottings among his acts. However, this also I concede;
