Quotes:

Caligula: Uncle Claudius, I wasn't the Messiah after all, would you believe that? Could have knocked me over with a feather when they told me that.

Caligula: Grandmother, you remember my dear Uncle Claudius who prefers the society of pigs to that of the court?::Livia: I have asked Claudius to be present at these ceremonies, and to be my guest at dinner tonight.::Caligula: But grandmother, think of his table manners.::Livia: Be silent, you impudent puppy. You take your uncle for a fool, but he's not. I sometimes think he pretends to be one, so as to make fools of us. Far from being a fool, he's the last decent man left alive in Rome. One can rely on him. If he makes a promise he keeps it. And when he swears to the truth, it is the truth. Am I right, Claudius? [Claudius tries to stammer a reply]::Caligula: Don't let him start talking, he might have a stroke.

Caligula: How wonderful to see you again, dear Uncle Claudius. I thought you were on your farm.::Claudius: I was or-or-::Caligula: You were or-or::Claudius: Ordered to attend.::Caligula: I hear you're teaching your pigs to read. Is that true?::Claudius: My pigs? Why?::Caligula: So as to have readers for all the Roman histories you write.

Claudius: I only limp with my tongue, and stutter with my leg. Nature never quite finished me.

Caligula: I now honor this noble house by appointing Incitatus, the greatest race horse in the Empire, a member of the Senate.

Claudius: It's good to see y-you're better, Caesar.::Caligula: I haven't been ill. I'm simply undergoing a change. It's the most momentous transformation that any human being has ever achieved. A prophecy is about to be fulfilled. I am being - reborn.::Claudius: I hope your condition is not t-t-too painful.::Caligula: It is painful to be one's own mother. Well, idiot, can't you see any change in me?::Claudius: I was blind not to see it instantly. You're no longer human. May I be the first to worship you, as a g-g-g-god?::Caligula: It took you a long time to perceive that I'm no longer human.

Claudius: Caligula was murdered. He ruled by force, but a state such as I hope to establish cannot condone murder. For violence is an enemy to justice. And in the name of justice, I call upon the murderers of Caligula to step forward.::Capt. of Caligula's Guard: We killed a tyrant, Caesar.::Claudius: But you broke your solemn oaths as Roman soldiers, to protect your Emperor. You didn't strike for your country. You killed in the name of your own private grudges. I was with you Cassius, when the tyrant kicked you, but you were not content with one single murder. You caused the death of Caliguls'a wife and of hundreds at the palace. What fate do you consider you deserve?::Capt. of Caligula's Guard: Death, Claudius.::Claudius: For that answer, I will take your families under my protection. But for the crime of murder, I must sentence you Cassius, and you Lupus, to - death. I will call upon the army to have that sentence executed.

Tacitus, Pliny the Younger, Ignatius, Clement

Order: Reorder
Duration: 15:10
Updated: 03 Sep 2013

My take on Tacitus and Pliny, and why I reject Ignatius and Clement. Tacitus "Annals" Book 15 Section 44 http://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Roman/Texts/Tacitus/Annals/15B*.html 44 1 So far, the precautions taken were suggested by human prudence: now means were sought for appeasing deity, and application was made to the Sibylline books; at the injunction of which public prayers were offered to Vulcan, Ceres, and Proserpine, while Juno was propitiated by the matrons, first in the Capitol, then at the nearest point of the sea-shore, where water was drawn for sprinkling the temple and image of the goddess. Ritual banquets and all-night vigils were celebrated by women in the married state. But neither human help, nor imperial munificence, nor all the modes of placating Heaven, could stifle scandal or dispel the belief that the fire had taken place by order. Therefore, to scotch the rumour, Nero substituted as culprits, and punished with the utmost refinements of cruelty, a class of men, loathed for their vices,27 whom the crowd styled Christians.28 Christus, the founder of the name, had undergone the death penalty in the reign of Tiberius, by sentence of the procurator Pontius Pilatus,29 and the pernicious superstition was checked for a moment, only to break out once more, not merely in Judaea, the home of the disease, but in the capital itself, where all things horrible or shameful in the world collect and find a vogue. First, then, the confessed members of the sect were arrested; next, on their disclosures, vast p285numbers30 were convicted, not so much on the count of arson as for hatred of the human race.31 And derision accompanied their end: they were covered with wild beasts' skins and torn to death by dogs; or they were fastened on crosses, and, when daylight failed were burned to serve as lamps by night. Nero had offered his Gardens for the spectacle, and gave an exhibition in his Circus, mixing with the crowd in the habit of a charioteer, or mounted on his car. Hence, in spite of a guilt which had earned the most exemplary punishment, there arose a sentiment of pity, due to the impression that they were being sacrificed not for the welfare of the state but to the ferocity of a single man. Tacitus on Vespasian "Histories" Book 4 Section 81 http://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Roman/Texts/Tacitus/Histories/4D*.html During the months while Vespasian was waiting at Alexandria for the regular season of the summer winds and a settled sea,4 many marvels continued to mark the favour of heaven and a certain partiality of the gods toward him. One of the common people of Alexandria, well known for his loss of sight, threw himself before Vespasian's knees, praying him with groans to cure his blindness, being so directed by the god Serapis, whom this most superstitious of nations worships before all others; and he besought the emperor to deign to moisten his cheeks and eyes with his spittle. Another, whose hand was useless, prompted by the same god, begged Caesar to step and trample on it. Vespasian at first ridiculed these appeals and treated them with p161scorn; then, when the men persisted, he began at one moment to fear the discredit of failure, at another to be inspired with hopes of success by the appeals of the suppliants and the flattery of his courtiers: finally, he directed the physicians to give their opinion as to whether such blindness and infirmity could be overcome by human aid. Their reply treated the two cases differently: they said that in the first the power of sight had not been completely eaten away and it would return if the obstacles were removed; in the other, the joints had slipped and become displaced, but they could be restored if a healing pressure were applied to them. Such perhaps was the wish of the gods, and it might be that the emperor had been chosen for this divine service; in any case, if a cure were obtained, the glory would be Caesar's, but in the event of failure, ridicule would fall only on the poor suppliants. So Vespasian, believing that his good fortune was capable of anything and that nothing was any longer incredible, with a smiling countenance, and amid intense excitement on the part of the bystanders, did as he was asked to do. The hand was instantly restored to use, and the day again shone for the blind man. Both facts are told by eye-witnesses even now when falsehood brings no reward. Pliny the Younger "Letter to Trajan" http://www.earlychristianwritings.com/text/pliny.html
