[85]
You reminded me also, since you had been in Crete that something might have been said against your
offering yourself as a candidate, and that I let that opportunity slip.
Which of us, then, is more covetous of a smart saying? I, who did not say
what might have been said, or you, who said it even against yourself? You
were fond of saying that you had sent home no letters with accounts of your
exploits, because mine, which I had sent to some one or other, had injured
me. But I am not aware that they did injure me I am quite sure that they
might have been of service to the republic.
