FOOTNOTES:

[Footnote 99: Quintilian is notable as a writer who was not influenced

by his great contemporary Seneca, whom he disliked and harshly

criticized for literary defects. Quintilian modeled his own style on

that of Cicero, altho at times he dropt back unconsciously into that

of Seneca.]

Oratory." Translated by J. S. Watson.]
