That's a great quote, but Cicero never said it or wrote it. Sorry.

I almost used it in the front pages of a book, but I decided to verify it, and it checked out as 100% certifiably bogus.

Quotes are so often misattibuted. I just found out the famous quote of Washington’s about “foreign entanglements” was actually said by Jefferson.

A lot of people fall for that quote, including me.

As Cicero wrote in his Barnum Quaestiones, "There's a sucker born every minute."
