“Rome was built on the blood of Remus; the Republic was born from the death of Lucretia; the Empire grew from the assassination of Caesar.”
― A Fatal Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum: Murder in Ancient Rome
― A Fatal Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum: Murder in Ancient Rome
“As had happened with Julius Caesar, it turned out that the people of Rome were actually quite keen on Gaius and were not fans of presumptuous senators and magistrates making unilateral decisions about the nature of Roman government with swords. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, they believed, not from some farcical bloody murder. Strange men in corridors distributing stab wounds was no basis for a system of government.”
― A Fatal Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum: Murder in Ancient Rome
― A Fatal Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum: Murder in Ancient Rome
“As wood shattered bones and blood began to flow, the Republic was being inexorably mutilated along with the faces of a lot of Roman people.”
