Cicero: “For rights that were not open to all alike would be no rights.”

In my opinion, at least, we should always strive to secure a peace that shall not admit of guile.

Again, there are certain duties that we owe even to those who have wronged us.

Whether we do the kindness or not is optional; but to fail to requite one is not allowable to a good man, provided he can make the requital without violating the rights of others.

So, then, it is truth that is, as it were, the stuff with which this virtue has to deal and on which it employs itself.
