Tacitus


Tacitus (c. 56-117+)

"Important events are obscure. Some believe all manner of hearsay evidence; others twist truth into fiction; and both sorts of error are magnified by time."
  • From The Annals of Imperial Rome (Chapter 5), by Tacitus, translated by Michael Grant (Penguin Classics, 1996).
