Thus was Pompey created and declared sole consul by Sulpicius, regent in this vacancy; upon which he made very cordial acknowledgments to Cato, professing himself much his debtor, and requesting his good advice in conducting the government; to this Cato replied, that Pompey had no reason to thank him, for all that he had said was for the service of the commonwealth, not of Pompey; but that he would be always ready to give his advice privately, if he were asked for it; and if not, he should not fail to say what he thought in public. Such was Cato's conduct on all occasions.

白话

在执政官空缺时,摄政苏尔皮基乌斯宣布庞培为唯一执政官。庞培诚恳感谢加图,自称欠他情,并请加图在治理中给予建议。加图回答:你不必谢我,我说那些话是为了国家,不是为你;如果你私下问我,我随时愿意建议;如果你不问,我也会在公开场合说出我的想法。加图一贯如此。这说明:真正的公职人员应把公共利益置于个人恩惠之上,既保持合作,也坚持独立批评。

上下文

普鲁塔克《希腊罗马名人传》中庞培与加图关于执政官任命的对话,体现加图的共和原则。

今日一问

当别人感谢你时,你能否分清自己是出于公心还是私谊?
