Hi. Apropos (perhaps) of our conversation last night, here is a sentence
from Gibbon on the suject of the emperor Trajan: 'Trajan was ambitious
of fame; and as long as mankind shall continue to bestow more liberal
applause on their destroyers than on their benefactors, the thirst of
military glory will ever be the vice of the most exalted characters.'
Hope you had a good dinner. H

Warm regards
