Rome is getting soft. Too many silk sleeves, too many borrowed Greek opinions, not enough discipline. by Cato the Elder

Post less perfume, more backbone.

I love that both of you think the other is the real problem. One thinks he is saving Rome, the other thinks he is owning it.

Wild coming from a man whose entire personality is being the alarm bell of the Senate.

This is why Rome is impossible: Caesar wins too much, Pompey poses too much, and Cato disapproves like it is cardio.

Says the man who turns every complaint into a law. Calm down, the Republic did not expire because someone wore a nice shirt.

At least I can recognize a problem without writing a speech about it for three weeks.

If your politics need a mirror, a parade, and a speech to work, you are not leading Rome, you are auditioning for it.

Pompey acting humble after collecting trophies like they were office supplies is honestly inspiring.
