Note 507 — LIFE OF C. CÆSAR.
George Long translation
A small matter in itself; but if true, a trait in Cæsar's character. Schaefer has the following note: "Aliter facturus erat Cyrneus, omnino inferior ille Romano." The Corsican is Napoleon. Cæsar was the magnanimous man, whom Aristotle describes (Eth. Nicom. iv. 7); Napoleon was not.
