	Cornelius Nepos - Atticus
		Atticus' sister was married to Quintus Tullius Cicero; the marriage was arranged by Marcus Cicero, with whom Atticus lived on very close terms ever since they were students together, indeed much more intimately than with Quintus, which shows that similarity of character carries more weight in friendship than ties of blood.
		Atticus' inactivity was so gratifying to Caesar that when he had won, and was demanding money from private individuals by letter, not only did he give Atticus no trouble, but at his request pardoned his sister's son and Quintus Cicero, as they were in Pompey's camp.
		Atticus, though he was very intimate with Cicero, and a close friend of Brutus, not only gave them no encouragement towards injuring Antony, but on the contrary protected, as far as he could, those close to him as they fled from the city, and helped them with whatever they required.

		Atticus belongs to that minority of men who, through discipline and art, have made themselves what they desire to be.
		That Atticus, living at that time, under circumstances of this sort, was able to effect an escape from a crashing world and still cull from it all that it had of grace and fragrance, was due to circumstances not likely to be repeated.
		I think Atticus, who lived beyond the ordinary span of years in accordance with principles that permitted the fullest use of life, was for all his mastery of the art of living, an unhappy man. He loved his friends, but he did not love his fellow men.

	Book Review: Cicero by Anthony Everitt
		For it was with Atticus that Cicero kept up a 25+ year correspondence of letters, many of which have miraculously survived and have come down to us.
		Atticus, though staying involved at the edges of public life, essentially moves to Greece and settles into a life of making money and living Epicurean values.
		Meanwhile, Cicero who was horrified at the chaos and turbulence that afflicted his youth, became attached to a conservativism in which he felt the Republic had to be saved by means of bringing the various social groups together and uplifting "better" men into public life.

		He took great interest in literary and cultural life, employing specially trained scribes to copy not merely the letters, speeches and philosophical works of Cicero (so he could arrange for their distribution).

		Cicero, Atticus and his fellow Gaul, Catallus, were considered his friends, but they seemed to hold little professional regard for him.
		He was not included in Quintilian's list of notable historians, and his few surviving works appear to justify this absence of adulation.

		But Cicero's letters to his friends (ad familiares), to his brother (ad Quintum fratrem) and to Atticus (ad Atticum) were what a letter is generally supposed to be: a way to express one's personal thoughts to a person one trusts.
		And the pinnacle of confidence and open mindedness is the correspondence with Atticus, his closest friend and supporter.
