"There was this saying of Crassus that man should not deem himself rich if he could not raise and equip a legion. "
Could any of ypu provide the relevant source for that? Can't find it in the obvious choice, Plutarch.
Also, I remember that Caesar equipped one of his legions at his own expense. A reference for that?
Thank you in advance
