"in Antient history Herodotus, Thucydides, Xenophon, Diodorus Siculus, Cornelius Nepos, Livy, Sallust, Caesar, Tacitus form such a body as the Student would easily fill up in the after-portions of his life." - Thomas Jefferson to Jason Chamberlain, 1 Jul. 1814 [PTJ:RS 7:447-448]

"... [would be suitable for children] when at the reading school. Nothing would interest them more than such works as Cornelius Nepos." - Thomas Jefferson to Thomas J. Rogers, 20 December 1823
