44315 | Augustus now turned round towards the statue, and, knitting his brows, asked,"Is not this my enemy who stands here?" |
44315 | Brutus, do you not know yourself? |
44315 | But it may be said, why seek in a Roman of his age what we can not expect to find? |
44315 | But when Demetrius said to the ambassador:--"What is this that you tell me? |
44315 | But why then is he exalted, and why is his name invoked? |
44315 | Casca was startled at this, whereon the other smiled and said,"How have you grown so rich all at once as to become a candidate for the ædileship?" |

44315 | Galba looked at him, and said,"Who ordered you to kill him?" |
44315 | Have you been a mother, as she has?" |
44315 | He answered,"Artasyras, do you not see that it is Cyrus, who is dead?" |
44315 | He had the courage to ask,"What man or god art thou, or with what purpose dost thou come to us?" |

44315 | How valuable is your scimitar? |
44315 | Is it on account of your mother that we are going to Egypt? |
44315 | Is she to embrace you as her uncle or as her husband also?" |
44315 | Is there not, however, another view of this question? |
44315 | Just when I am striving to win a kingdom, do you bid me prove myself unworthy of one?" |
44315 | Kleomenes, suspecting what he meant, asked,"What do you mean, Lysandridas? |
44315 | Metellus Nepos during a dispute with Cicero often repeated,"Who is your father?" |
44315 | Mithridates, who was already in liquor, answered:"What are these things, Sparamixes? |
44315 | Now, therefore, since fortune has placed us in your power, how do you propose to settle this difficulty? |
44315 | On Nasica asking[79] him,"What if Tiberius had told you to burn the Capitol?" |
44315 | Once Lysimachus, meaning to be very civil to him said,"Philippides, which of my possessions shall I bestow upon you?" |
44315 | Or shall we rather punish this fellow for his crimes, and thus prove ourselves the avengers of Nero, and the faithful guards of Galba?" |
44315 | Parysatis was especially enraged by the reproaches of Statira, who asked her loudly,"Where now are the pledges you gave us? |
44315 | Recognising the eunuchs who were mourning over the body, he asked the most trusted of them,"Pariskas, who is this beside whom you sit weeping?" |
44315 | Rustius( Roscius? |
44315 | Shall we choose the son of Nymphidia for our emperor, and slay the son of Livia as we slew the son of Agrippina? |
44315 | Shall we then kill Galba as well as Nero? |
44315 | Standing on the prow of his vessel Antonius asked who it was that was pursuing Antonius? |
44315 | The Pythia returned the following answer:--"Dost thou, fair Sikyon, hesitate to raise A fitting tomb to thy lost hero''s praise? |
44315 | The wretch, who worships mortals like to gods, His crimes destroy us, not my harmless rhymes?" |
44315 | To reduce this philosopher to his true level, we ask, what did he say or do that showed a sympathy with all mankind? |
44315 | Upon this Brutus, greatly angered, said,"Why then do you ask me, Casca, and why do n''t you do what you like?" |
44315 | What end do you expect of this?" |
44315 | What faith can we put in the laws or in the deities since the murder of Tiberius?" |
44315 | What single act is there in the man''s life which promised the regeneration of his country and the freedom of mankind? |
44315 | What single title had he to distinction except what Cæsar gave him? |
44315 | What, indeed, is the object of the wars and dangers which bad kings endure, in their folly, unless it be this? |
44315 | Where is the evidence that he had the feeling of justice which alone can regenerate a nation? |
44315 | Who was it caused the frost to blight our vines? |
44315 | Why make a hero of him who murdered his benefactor, and then ran away from the city which he was to save-- from we know not what? |
44315 | Why should we recklessly embark on this voyage merely in order to exchange our misfortunes at home for others in a distant country? |
44315 | Why then elevate him above the rest of his age and consecrate his name? |
44315 | Will a sow teach Athena?" |
44315 | but Dionysodorus of Troezene proves him to be wrong, and restores the proverb to its original form:"Who vaunt their fathers, save the worst of sons?" |
44315 | do you bid me give you back your city?" |
44315 | for we ourselves used to do just the same thing at Syracuse?" |
44315 | or how was it that when Python of Byzantium was pouring forth a flood of invective against Athens, Demosthenes alone rose and answered him? |
