Cicero Quotes
Omnium Rerum Principia Parva Sunt – ‘The beginnings of all things are small.’ – Cicero
A literal translation would be “of all things, beginnings small are.”
Male Parta Male Dilabuntur – ‘What has been wrongly gained is wrongly lost.’ – Cicero
Grammatical this saying is “those things (implied by “parta” neuter plural ending) having been acquired wrongly or badly, they are wrongly or badly lost”
