- Marcus Tullius Cicero in De Haruspicum Responsis 3.5-6,For what need that I should vent my spleen upon such brute cattle as Clodius, who had browsed to his own bane upon the fodder and acorns of my enemies? If he has realised the nature of the sin that has enthralled him, I cannot doubt that he is the most wretched of men; but if he is blind to this, he may attempt to defend himself by pleading congenital dulness of wit.
his speech to the Senate concerning Publius Clodius Pulcher claiming a recent prodigy was because Cicero's house having been returned to him had angered the gods,
translated by N. H. Watts.
