For Titus Annius Milo

Marcus Tullius Cicero · Parte 64

Many also spoke of Catiline and the monsters of his train. “We shall have another Catiline breaking out. He will occupy some strong place; he will make war on his country.” Wretched sometimes is the fate of those citizens who have faithfully served the republic! when men not only forget the illustrious exploits which they have performed, but even suspect them of the most nefarious designs! [64] Therefore, all those things were false, which would certainly have turned out true if Milo had committed any action which he could not defend with honour and with truth. [cap.24]
