  • αʹ Cicero, Ad Atticum 8.12:
Qua re nunc saltem ad illos calculos revertamur quos tum abiecimus, ut non solum gloriosis consiliis utamur sed etiam paulo salubrioribus. Anyway, because of this we should return to that strategy which we then left behind: we will not merely follow advice that would lead to glory, but also to that which is a bit more advantageous to us.
