1. A certain man came out of a brothel while Cato [the Censor] was going by. When the man started to run away, Cato called him back and praised him [because he was releasing his libido with prostitutes rather than with virgins or married women]. Later, when he had seen him coming quite often out of the same brothel, he said, as the story goes: ‘Young man, I praised you on the assumption that you visited here, not that you lived here.’
    – Pseudo-Acron on Horace Sat. 1.2.31-32 (via eushkbkarma)
