Philippics Passage 2

itaque mihi qui plurimis officiis sum cum Bruto et maxima familiaritate coniunctus minus multa de illo dicenda sunt. quas enim ipse mihi partis sumpseram , eas praecepit oratio tua. sed mihi, patres conscripti, necessitatem attulit paulo plura dicendi sententia eius qui rogatus est ante me; a quo ita saepe dissentio ut iam verear ne, id quod fieri minime debet, minuere amicitiam nostram videatur perpetua dissensio.

Therefore, since I am bound to Brutus by the greatest intimacy and by very many mutual services, I have less need to say much about him. Your speech anticipated the part I had undertaken for myself. But, conscript fathers, the opinion of the man called upon before me has compelled me to speak at somewhat greater length. I disagree with him so often that I am beginning to fear that our continual disagreement may appear to diminish our friendship, which ought least of all to happen.

Ainsi, moi que de très nombreux services et la plus étroite amitié unissent à Brutus, j'ai moins à dire sur lui. Ton discours a déjà rempli le rôle que je m'étais réservé. Mais, pères conscrits, l'avis de celui qui a parlé avant moi m'impose d'en dire un peu davantage. Je diffère si souvent de lui que je commence à craindre que ce désaccord perpétuel ne paraisse diminuer notre amitié, ce qui ne devrait nullement arriver.
