Էջ 253 - "Ibid., 24, 24. the perfection of Fronto's style is praised by those who have studied under him. In each instance meaning and connotation are so plain that it is perhaps only necessary to quote them. "Nam de elegantia quid dicam? nisi te Latine loqui nos ceteros neque Graece neque Latine...
Էջ 343 - ... of understanding without reason or the moral sense, and in him, as in some brute animals, this advance to the intellectual faculties, without the moral sense, is marked by the appearance of vice.
