@Darren Jayce thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.

So Cicero is an Aristotelian.

[@mayuri5928]

incredible summary

[@nonaparmenter590]

Excellent Oratory about Cicero. He probably is pleased. My maiden name is Cicerone. I've been told I'm related to Cicero. Anyone out there have any Genealogy they could share with me to settle this discussion?

[@crazyyyyy2945]

Quite far back you have to go lol - 2000 years

you don't verify cool family myths you pass it forward

Google "Descendant of Charlemagne" meme. What I mean is, since it has been 2k years, I am sure everybody is related to Cicero in one way or another

[@MichaelStolze-g7c]

So, I take it if you’re a descendant of Charlemagne, you’re a descendant of Cicero?

[@derickb.wesonga]

Thank you

his name was KIKERO and yes farmers make a good citizens

Cicero ma boi

[@sultanpoppa3735]

No quotes. He seems to contradict Cicero's actual statements on natural rights in The Republic.

[@hannie1420]

I thought so too, in the cicero book I just read it says cicero chose monarchy not aristocracy

[@szymonbaranowski8184]

​@@hannie1420 nobody here said he chose aristocracy or chose any concrete model only that he sided with aristocracy in the system and it was explained why

[@hannie1420]

@@szymonbaranowski8184 well I read the book for my exams so I had to take special note of that, also he specifically repeated that he choose aristocracy that's why I said what I did only a correction so that others aren't mislead

BAY BAYO THOSE TREPASSING = JUSTICE MR LE DEPUTY ROMAN CATHOLIC

[@tritonlandscaping1505]

Cicero is self serving. His philosophy follows this principle, not the other way around. Cicero has more in common with someone like Caesar. He believes in aristocracy because he IS aristocracy. He believes in elitism because he is elite. Oh the irony. For a principled man look to Cato (both Elder and Younger).
