“Aedificare diu cogitare oportet. Conserere cogitare non oportet, sed facere oportet.
[Building requires long thought: planting requires not thought but action.]”
― Cato and Varro: On Agriculture
[Building requires long thought: planting requires not thought but action.]”
― Cato and Varro: On Agriculture
“Siquid desit in annum, uti paretur: quae supersint, ut veneant: quae opus sint locato, locentur: quae opera fieri velit et quae locari velit, uti imperet et ea scripta relinquat... Patrem familias vendacem, non emacem esse oportet.
Give orders that whatever may be lacking for the current year be supplied; that what is superfluous be sold; that whatever work should be let out be let. Give directions as to what work you want done on the place, and what you want let out, and leave the directions in writing... The master should have the selling habit, not the buying habit.”
