Non eram nescius, Brute, cum, quae summis ingeniis
exquisitaque doctrina philosophi Graeco sermone tractavissent, ea Latinis litteris mandaremus, fore ut hic
noster labor in varias reprehensiones incurreret. nam
quibusdam, et iis quidem non admodum indoctis, totum hoc displicet philosophari. quidam autem non tam
id reprehendunt, si remissius agatur, sed tantum studium tamque multam operam ponendam in eo non
arbitrantur. erunt etiam, et ii quidem eruditi Graecis
litteris, contemnentes Latinas, qui se dicant in Graecis
legendis operam malle consumere. postremo aliquos
futuros suspicor, qui me ad alias litteras vocent, genus
hoc scribendi, etsi sit elegans, personae tamen et dignitatis esse negent.
