Marcus Tullius Cicero
A room without books is like a body without a soul. ― Marcus Tullius Cicero
Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 BCE) was a Roman statesman, orator, philosopher, and writer. Renowned for his eloquence and political influence during the late Roman Republic, he played a crucial role in shaping Latin prose. Cicero’s works on philosophy, law, and rhetoric remain foundational in Western thought. Despite his efforts to preserve the Republic, he was ultimately executed during the rise of the Roman Empire.
