what Plutarch said

"The abuse of buying and selling votes crept in and money began to play an important part in determining elections. Later on, this process of corruption spread to the law courts. And then to the army, and finally the Republic was subjected to the rule of emperors."

Plutarch (46 A.D.-127 A.D.) Historian of the Roman Republic
