Talk:Petronius
From Wikiquote
- Though the quote "Education is a treasure" is widely cited as Petronius' Satyricon chapter 47, I checked several Latin and English translations and they all have this quote in chapter 46. --Mysticrhythm 04:53, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- The "we trained hard" quote is discussed in "Latin Fiction: The Latin Novel in Context" by Heinz Hofmann as the "reorganization forgery"--a famous spurious quote falsely attributed to Petronius.
