And just as men cannot be happy without freedom, so they cannot be truly free without society. | | | Those scholars who tend toward a selective reading of the Federalist, to justify a strongly nationalist interpretation of that work, would argue that it is. |

| | The office was later offered to Caesar Augustus, who prudently declined it, and opted instead for tribunician power and consular imperium without holding any office other than pontifex maximus and princeps senatus — a politic arrangement which left him as functional dictator without having to hold the controversial title or office itself. | | | After Caesar's murder on the Ides of March, his consular colleague Mark Antony passed a lex Antonia which abolished the dictatorate and expunged it from the constitutions of the Republic. | | | The best known dictatores rei gerendae causa were Cincinnatus and Fabius Maximus (during the Second Punic War). |
