Aesopi ingenio statuam posuere Attici, servumque collocarunt aeterna in basi, patere honoris scirent ut cuncti viam nec generi tribui sed virtuti gloriam.
The Athenians set up a statue in honour of the gifted Aesop, and by so doing placed a slave on a pedestal of everlasting fame, that all men might know that the path of honour lies open and that glory is awarded not according to birth, but according to merit.
