Seneca the Stoic, he say:

CRUELTY IS BORN OF DEFICIENCY

- one of the tiles featuring quotations from Seneca
in the little square dedicated to him
in his home-town Córdoba.

(Something that modern Spaniards should heed
with regard to their treatment of greyhounds
and carriage-horses.)

    Wouldn't a more apt translation of the Spanish read: "Cruelty always takes root from weakness"?
