Synopsis:\xa0 The revolt of Avidius Cassius.\n\u201cThere is only one thing I fear, fellow-soldiers\u2026and that is that (Avidius Cassius) may either kill himself because ashamed to come into our presence, or someone else upon learning that I shall come and am setting out against him may do it. Then should I be deprived of a great prize both of war and of victory, and of a magnitude such as no human being ever yet obtained. \xa0What is this? \xa0Why, to forgive a man that has done you an injury, to remain a friend to one who has transgressed friendship, to continue faithful to one who has broken faith.\u201d \u2013 Marcus Aurelius, quoted by Cassius Dio, Rome, Book 71\nAvidius Cassius Family Tree:\n https://audio.ancientworldpodcast.com/B25_Avidius_Cassius.pdf\nLearn more about your ad choices.
