Per te vero non est mora, quominus beneficia,
qui acceperunt, ultro repetant, nec recusabis conferre alia et suppressis dissimulatisque plura ac maiora adicere : propositum optimi viri et ingentis animi
tam diu ferre ingratum, donec feceris gratum. Nec
te ista ratio decipiet ; succumbunt vitia virtutibus,
si illa non cito odisse properaveris.
L. Annaeus Seneca. Moral Essays: volume 3. John W. Basore. London and New York. Heinemann. 1935.
