Cicero
Built from the writings and philosophies associated with Marcus Tullius Cicero (Ad Familiares, Shuckburgh translation, public domain).
""
Roman statesman, orator, and philosopher whose surviving letters — especially the Ad Familiares — give one of antiquity's most candid records of a public life: friendship, ambition, exile, grief, and the practice of steadying oneself when the political ground moves beneath you.
