 Ancient History Sourcebook: Suetonius  (c.69-after 122 CE): The Divine Augustus
His father Gaius Octavius was, from his earliest years, a person both of opulence and distinction: for which reason I am surprised at those who say that he was a money-dealer, and was employed in scattering bribes, and canvassing for the candidates at elections, in the Campus Martius.
Gaius and Lucius he adopted at home, by the ceremony of purchase from their father, advanced them, while yet very young, to offices in the state, and when they were consuls-elect, sent them to visit the provinces and armies.
And thc tutor and other attendants of his son Gaius, having taken advantage of his sickness and death, to give loose to their insolence and rapacity in the province he governed, he caused heavy weights to be tied about their necks, and had them thrown into a river.

 Suetonius
He begot Gnaeus and Gaius, from whom two branches of the Octavian fimaily were derived, of very different standing; for Gnaeus and all his scions in turn held the highest offices, but Gaius and his progeny, whether from chance or choice, remained in the equestrian order down to the father of Augustus.
For he was not greatly broken by the fate of Gaius and Lucius, but he informed the Senate of his daughter's fall through a letter read in his absence by a quaestor, and for very shame would meet no one for a long time, and even thought of putting her to death.
As Marcus Cicero was attending Gaius Caesar to the Capitol, he happened to tell his friends a dream of the night before---that a boy of noble countenance was let down from heaven on a golden chain and, standing at the door of the temple, was given a whip by Jupiter.

He had six competitors, of whom two were patricians, Publius Sulpicius Galba and Lucius Sergius Catilina, and four plebeians, of whom Gaius Antonius, son of the orator Marcus Antonius, and Lucius Cassius Longinus were nobiles, and Quintus Cornificius and Gaius Licinius Sacerdos were almost the first of their families to be elected to public office.
Gaius Caesar, then quite a young man, spoke for the Greeks; and when Lucullus found in favor of the Greeks, Antonius called the tribunes and swore that he was withdrawing from the suit because he could not get a fair hearing.
Both Catilina and Antonius made insulting replies to this speech of Cicero and went on counter-attack using the only argument they had, that he was a new man. There are orations extant published in their names, not written by them themselves but by Cicero's enemies; it's probably best not to pay attention to them.

 Exhibits- Triumvirate
Most historians are quick to harshly and definitively judge Marcus Antonius and Gaius Octavius as they would one-dimensional characters in a movie, failing to understand or acknowledge the emotions of the time or to experience any amount of compassion for these men, men who were called upon to lead the people of Rome.
Antonius, however, was not the incompetent and frivolous soldier some historians are inclined to believe him to be.
Octavian and Antonius were finally on the same side, and as they commanded much of the military might Romans had to offer, the Republic could do nothing to stop them.
