Excerpt from First Six Books of Cæsar's Commentaries on the Gallic War: Literally Translated

That, besides, neither dare he go without an army into those parts of Gaul which Caesar had possession of, nor could he, without great expense and trouble, draw his army together to one place; that to him, moreover, it appeared strange, what business either Caesar or the Roman people at all had in his own Gaul, which he had conquered in war.

Excerpt from First Six Books of Cæsar's Commentaries on the Gallic War: Literally Translated

Caius Julius Cæsar, the author of "The Commentaries," as this work is frequently called, was born July 12th, 100 B. C. Sprung from a family which for many years held high offices in the state, he, at an early age, gave evidence of those qualities of character which in later years made him the most eminent man of his time and gained for him the title of "the greatest man of antiquity."

Connected by birth with Marius he was naturally an adherent of that party which was opposed to the aristocratic form of government of the dictator Sulla. To this fact, and to the indignities which he suffered at the hands of the patricians, maybe attributed his firm and settled purpose to overthrow the aristocracy, a purpose notably conspicuous throughout his life.
