A quotation from Cicero

We are all motivated by a keen desire for praise, and the better a man is, the more he is inspired by glory.
 
[Trahimur omnes studio laudis et optimus quisque maxime gloria ducitur.]

Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC) Roman orator, statesman, philosopher
Pro Archia Poeta [For Archia the Poet], ch. 11 / sec. 26 (62 BC) [tr. Guinach (1962)]
