Starting to believe it. Although I was just finishing a terrific novel called " Dictator" about ancient Rome and specifically Cicero and thought most era's probably have thought the same thing. One chapter dealing with Caesar and his conquest of the germanic tribes north. There was much disapproval in the senate that he had slaughtered 400,000 prisoners after the battle was won. Pretty grim times.
