[4] ὥσπερ οὐδὲ τῶν ἄλλων οὐδείς. οὐ γὰρ ἐνοχλεῖ τοῖς ἑκάστου βίοις ἡ πόλις ἡ Ῥωμαίων ὥσπερ τινὲς ἕτεραι, ἐν αἷς ὁ κοινὸς μὲν πλοῦτος ὀλίγος ἐστίν, ὁ δὲ τῶν ἰδιωτῶν πολύς, ἀλλ᾽ αὐτὴ παρέχει τοῖς πρὸς τὰ κοινὰ προσιοῦσιν ἅπαντα, ὅσων δέονται, λαμπρὰς καὶ μεγαλοπρεπεῖς ὑποτιθεῖσα χορηγίας: ὥστε μηδὲν ἀτιμότερον εἶναι τὸν πενέστατον τοῦ πλουσιωτάτου κατὰ τὴν ἐπαξίωσιν τῶν καλῶν, ἀλλὰ πάντας εἶναι Ῥωμαίους, ὅσοι ἂν ὦσι διὰ καλοκαγαθίαν τούτων ἄξιοι τῶν τιμῶν, ἀλλήλοις ἴσους.
