« All quotes from this author
 

Peragit tranquilla potestas
quod violenta nequit; mandataque fortius urget
imperiosa quies.
--
Quiet authority accomplishes what violence cannot, and that mandate compels more which comes from a commanding calm.
--
Panegyricus dictus Manlio Theodoro consuli, lines 239-241.
