"nemo enim umquam est oratorem, quod Latine loqueretur, admiratus; si est aliter, inrident neque eum oratorem tantum modo, sed hominem non putant.
[No one has ever been astonished by an orator because he can speak Latin correctly; if he speaks any other way, not only do they mock him as an orator, they do not even think he's human.]"
— Marcus Tullius Cicero (Cicero: On the Orator: Book 3. On Fate. Stoic Paradoxes. On the Divisions of Oratory: A. Rhetorical Treatises (Loeb Classical Library No. 349))
