| | Cato the Younger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Cato also prosecuted Sulla's informers, who had acted as head-hunters during Sulla's tyranny, despite their political connections among Cato's own party and despite the power of Pompey, who had been known as the "teenage butcher" for his service under Sulla. | | | After the Catilina conspiracy, Cato turned all his political skills to oppose the designs of Caesar and his triumvirate allies (Pompey and Crassus), who had among them a near-monopoly on the reins of the Roman state. | | | Cato accused Caesar of involvement in the conspiracy and suggested that he was working on Catilina's behalf, which might explain Caesar's otherwise odd stance that the conspirators should receive no public hearing yet be shown clemency. |

| | Autobiographical Information: CATO THE ELDER, CATO THE CENSOR |
| | Cato was also known as Cato the Censor for his monitoring of the behavior of public officials and his desire to extricate any Greek influence or capitalist ideas and to return to conservative Roman conduct and morality. | | | He is also known as Cato the Censor due to his austere scrutinization of Senate officials in 184 BC and the removal of those who he considered too liberal or open to new foreign ideas, and those who were extravagant or who he felt lived luxurious, immoral lives. | | | Cato believed that 2 qualifications were essential to being a great orator: wide knowledge and a good character. |

| | Cato the Elder |
| | Cato undertook numerous prosecutions and caused Lucius Scipio to pay a heavy fine, but 44 impeachments were brought against Cato himself. | | | As Rome& involvement in the eastern Mediterranean grew, Cato found himself the patron or advocate of Greek delegations who had come to press a case in Rome. | | | The man who sets up as being much better than his age is always to be suspected, and Cato is perhaps the best specimen of the rugged hypocrite and austere charlatan that history can produce. |

| | Marcus Porcius Cato |
| | Therefore, it was as censor, that Cato publicly would ridicule and threaten those who he deemed improper. | | | Nevertheless, as Plutarch also states, as a result of this measure, Cato did not always gain his desired response, but earned “the hatred not only of those who put up with the taxes to enjoy their luxuries, but also of those who sacrificed the luxuries to avoid the taxes.” | | | However, another matter of importance to note is that while Cato rose in political prominence, he also reacquainted and allied himself with his old commander Fabius Maximus, who Cato greatly admired. |

| | CATO THE ELDER: Death to the semicolon! Behead those who use it! |
| | This pleasant-looking fellow is Mohammed Reza Taheri-azar, a recent graduate of UNC who decided, according to press reports, that a good way to "avenge the deaths of Muslims around the world" would be to rent a big car and drive it into a crowd of people at the Chapel Hill campus. | | | Especially when you live in a country where a sizable part of the print and broadcasting media are such guilt-ridden cretins when it comes to Islam that if they saw Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein sexually sharing their own grandmother, they’d swear the poor old lady asked for it. | | | Anyone who would convince us of the opposite will have to show more sensitivity than this. |

| | Delenda est Carthago |
| | Delenda Est Carthago, Carthage must be destroyed, or more exactly: "Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam" which means "And therefore, I conclude that Carthage must be destroyed", was the motto of arch-conservative Roman Senator Marcus Porcius Cato. | | | He is generally referred to as Cato the Elder to distinguish him from his grandson of the same name, who also rose to prominence in Roman history and is known as the Younger. | | | Carthage recovered economically and Cato feared this, urging that the only sure defense against a resurgent Carthage was to destroy it. |

| | Cato Response Assignment |
| | Since Cato was a rising 'new man' (novus homo) in the power elite of the Roman ruling order, in many ways he is a particularly good example of these changes as they were experienced by one person at the heart of Roman society. | | | Cato the Elder's life (from 230s to 149 BC) spanned one of the most important phases in the development of the Republic, from the second war with Carthage, against the Carthaginian general Hannibal, through the great post-Hannibalic changes in the Roman and Italian society and economy. | | | Plutarch was a Greek writer from Chaeronaea in Boeotia (Greece) who composed his 'Parallel Lives of Eminent Greeks and Romans' in the first decades of the second century AD (note that this is about two and a half centuries after the main events of Cato's life). |
