76.10 When Petillius and Quintus brought before the people many accusations against him, he remarked that on this very day he had conquered the Carthaginians and Hannibal, and he said that he himself, with a garland on, was on his way up to the Capitol to offer sacrifice, and he bade anyone who so wished to give in his vote about him. With these words he went his way, and the people followed after, leaving behind his accusers still speaking.There are many references to this incident. Cf. Moralia, 540 F; Plutarch’s Life of Cato Major, chap. xv. (344 D), Polybius, xxiii. 14; Livy, xxxviii. 50-51; Aulus Gellius, iv. 18. See also the note on the similar action of Epameinondas, Moralia, 194 B, supra.

TITUS QUINTIUS T. Quintius Flamininus, conqueror of Philip V. of Macedon at Cynoscephalae in 197 B.C.

77.1 Titus Quintius, from the very first, was a man of such conspicuous talent that he was chosen consul without having been tribune, praetor, or aedile.That is, without passing through the regular cursus honorum. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Flamininus, chap. ii. (369 C). He was sent in command of the army against Philip, and was prevailed upon to meet him in conference. Philip insisted that he ought to receive some Romans as a guarantee of his safety, since Quintius was accompanied by many of his countrymen and he all alone represented the Macedonians. The truth is, said Quintius, that it is you who have made yourself all alone by putting to death your friends and kindred. Cf. Plutarch’s Life of Flamininus, chap. xvii. (378 D); Polybius, xviii. 7.
