Do not blame Caesar, blame the people of Rome who have so enthusiastically
acclaimed and adored him and rejoiced in their loss of freedom and danced in his
path and given him triumphal processions
Blame the people who hail him when he
speaks in the Forum of the new wonderful good society which shall now be Rome's,
interpreted to mean more money, more ease, more security, and more living fatly
at the expense of the industrious."
-- Marcus Tullius Cicero
