Lucius Cassius too derived his influence, which was very considerable, not indeed from his _Eloquence_, but from his manly way of speaking: for it is remarkable that he made himself popular, not, as others did, by his complaisance and liberality, but by the gloomy rigour and severity of his manners.

Lucius Catiline was of noble birth, of great mental and bodily vigor, but of an evil and depraved disposition.
This man, after the tyranny of Lucius Sulla, had been possessed by an overwhelming passion to control the state, nor so long as he gained supreme power for himself did he attach any weight to the means by which he should attain it.
After Lucius Sulla had seized the government by force of arms, and made a bad end to a good beginning, robbery and plunder became universal; one coveted a house, another an estate, the victors knew neither limit nor sobriety, and citizens became the object of vile and cruel outrage.
