Sed memoria mea ingenti virtute, divorsis moribus fuere viri duo, M. Cato et C. Caesar; quos quoniam res obtulerat, silentio praeterire non fuit consilium, quin utriusque naturam et mores, quantum ingenio possum, aperirem.

With respect to these men, since the subject matter has introduced them, it is not my intention to pass them by in silence, without describing, to the utmost of my ability the disposition and character of each.
