History rhymes: “He feared that, when the Romans no longer had an enemy to restrain them, they would become insolent, reckless, careless, and quarrelsome, corrupted by prosperity and falling into moral decay.” — Appian, Roman History, Punic Wars 69*, reporting the argument of Scipio Nasica Corculum.
