[558] Cicero has the same (de Amicitia, 16): "Quonam modo quisquam amicus esse poterit, cui se putabit inimicum esse posse?" He also quotes Scipio to the effect that no sentiment is more unfriendly to friendship than this, that we should love as if some day we were to hate.

"Quando leoni

Exspiravit aper majoris dentibus apri?

Perpetuam; sævis inter se convenit ursis.
Ast homini," etc.
Juvenal, Sat. xv. 160-5.
