DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Dublin Review, Vol. 4: July October To form an estimate of Cicero's character as a statesman, it is of course important in the first place to have before us a clear idea of the attributes of a statesman, and then to consider how far our subject can be said to have possessed them. It will be agreed that a statesman should have large views of a political situation, and be able practically to realize them; should have the power of commanding, and also of managing mankind, as well by word as by action; should have his country's interests at heart, be thoroughly master of them.
