Marcus Tullius Cicero,  Phil. 2.109 ; (44 B.C.):

At iste, qui senatu non egeret, neque desideravit quemquam et potius discessu nostro laetatus est statimque illa mirabilia facinora effecit. Qui chirographa Caesaris defendisset lucri sui causa, is leges Caesaris, easque praeclaras, ut rem publicam concutere posset, evertit. Numerum annorum provinciis prorogavit, idemque, cum actorum Caesaris defensor esse deberet, et in publicis et in privatis rebus acta Caesaris rescidit. In publicis nihil est lege gravius, in privatis firmissimum est testamentum. Leges alias sine promulgatione sustulit, alias ut tolleret, promulgavit. Testamentum irritum fecit, quod etiam infimis civibus semper optentum est. Signa, tabulas, quas populo Caesar una cum hortis legavit, eas hic partim in hortos Pompei deportavit, partim in villam Scipionis.

Yet that man, who does not need the senate, did not miss anyone and rather rejoiced at our departure and immediately produced those marvelous deeds. Though he had defended the memoranda of Caesar for the sake of profit, he overturned these laws of Caesar, and such distinguished ones, so that he could agitate the commonwealth. He proroged the number of years in provinces, and this same, when he ought to be the defender of the acts of Caesar, both in public and private matters he rescinded the acts of Caesar. In public transcations nothing is more serious than the law, in private matters the will is the hardest to break. Without any promulgation he abolished other laws, he gave notice of others, so that he could annul them. He made the will invalid, which even always was preserved for the humblest citizens. The statues and paintings, which Caesar bequeathed to the people together with his villa, he carried away some to the gardens of Pompeius, some to the villa of Scipio.
