Sed quaedam et retrorsum idem valent,
ut vivere hominem qui spirat, et spirare qui vivit.
quaedam in contrarium non recurrent; nec enim,
quia movetur qui ingreditur, etiam ingreditur qui
movetur.
Quintilian. With An English Translation. Harold Edgeworth Butler. Cambridge. Cambridge, Mass., Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann, Ltd. 1921.
