C. Cotta, in ambitione artifex, dicere solebat se
operam suam, quoad non contra officium rogaretur, polliceri solere omnibus, impertire iis
apud quos optime poni arbitraretur; ideo se nemini negare, quod saepe accideret causa cur is
cui pollicitus esset non uteretur, saepe ut ipse magis esset vacuus quam putasset; neque
posse eius domum compleri qui tantum modo reciperet quantum videret se obire posse; casu
fieri ut agantur ea quae non putaris, illa quae credideris in manibus esse ut aliqua de
causa non agantur; deinde esse extremum ut irascatur is cui mendacium dixeris.
