LUCIUS ACCIUS

Let them hate as long as they fear.

Indeed, wretched the man whose fame makes his misfortunes famous.

Many, whose hearts are conquered by acute spite, roll out balanced tales from their own heart, which do not balance when you weigh words against deeds.

A man whose life has been dishonorable is not entitled to escape disgrace in death.

Let people hate you so long as they fear you.

Women, children, monks and other non-combatants are to be spared during war and no longer taken prisoner.

Not at all do I trust augurs, who enrich the ears of others, so that they can enrich their own homes with gold.
