Cohort 2 lines 70-75, p. 21.

But in this conspiracy there was Quintus Curius, not born in humble position,
overflowing with scandals and crimes, who Censors expelled him from the Senate for the sake of dishonoring him. This man undertook not only minor lies but recklessness as well,
concealing nothing about anything he heard nor what he said himself,so that he can conceal his crimes. He did not value what he heard or what he said.

All the lines from what we have translated

His body was enduring hunger, cold, lack of sleep beyond what anyone believed. His mind was bold, deceitful, and diverse. He was a simulator and a dissimulator of whatever he pleases: greedy of others wealth ad likes to spend his own, he was eager in his desires. He has enough eloquence that and has little wisdom. His immense spirit/mind always wanted thing that were extreme, unbelievable, and to high. After the domination of Sulla, the greatest desire of capturing the republic had possessed him. He did not consider the importance in what methods he achieved this provided he secured power. Catiline, both because there was huge debt throughout the land and because many of Sulla’s soldiers having lavishly used their wealth and having to be mindful of the old plundering because  they were desiring a civil war, Catiline formed a plan for seizing the republic. 

He had great hope for obtaining the consulship. The senate was not paying any attention. And everything was quiet and tranquil. This was the opportunity for Catiline.

Meeting of Catiline and his co-conspirators. 

The projects I have been pondered, have already been explained to you separately. Yet my spirit is set on fire more every day. When I consider what the condition of life will be, if we ourselves do not lay claim to ourselves for freedom. After the republic fell into the laws and control of a few powerful people. There was always for them kings, petty monarchs, tribute, groups of people, and nations that pay taxes. All the rest of us, the hard working, the good, the upper and lower class, have simply been seen as the mob. We have been without any authority. Submissive to those. To whom if the republic was strong, we would be feared. All the government has been left to the but we are left at the polls with danger, and poverty. How long do you want this? Isn't it better to die with courage than to die to somebody else's arrogance, and by the gods, victory is in our hand. On one hand we have youth and strength, and on the other hand we have the old an weak. With this we shall take care of things. What I have pondered, I have agitated, you all have heard this separately. Why don’t you wake up? Behold that, that you often desire... liberty, wealth, honor, and glory; have been placed in your eyes, you can see them! Fortune has place all this reward for the victors. {Testing their man-hood}. Things as they are... all these things urge you more greatly than my speech. You can use me either as a commander or a soldier. I hope I could do these things as your consul... unless my spirit deceives me, and you guys are prepared to server like a slave rather than lead, unless I was wrong about you.
