"(To Quintus Ennius, ‘'Annales’', 183-190 Skutsch}} “The homeland must be redeemed with iron, not gold”: thus Camillus (362 BC) – according to the account of Livy, 5, 49, 3 – incites his fellow citizens to take up arms against the Gauls, renouncing peace negotiations with Brenno, the enemy leader."
