Prima huius
notae sunt : hostium manibus eripi et tyrannicae
irae et proscriptioni et aliis periculis, quae varia et
incerta humanam vitam obsident. Quidquid horum
discusserimus, quo maius ac terribilius erit, hoc
maiorem inibimus gratiam ; subit enim cogitatio,
quantis sint liberati malis, et lenocinium est muneris
antecedens metus. Nec tamen ideo debemus tardius
quemquam servare, quam possumus, ut muneri
nostro timor imponat pondus.
L. Annaeus Seneca. Moral Essays: volume 3. John W. Basore. London and New York. Heinemann. 1935.
