Page "Julius Caesar" Paragraph 15
from
Wikipedia
On his return to Rome, he was elected military tribune, a first step in a political career.
He was elected quaestor for 69 BC, and during that year he delivered the funeral oration for his aunt Julia.
His wife, Cornelia, also died that year.
After her funeral, in the spring or early summer of 69 BC, Caesar went to serve his quaestorship in Spain.
While there he is said to have encountered a statue of Alexander the Great, and realized with dissatisfaction he was now at an age when Alexander had the world at his feet, while he had achieved comparatively little.
On his return in 67 BC, he married Pompeia, a granddaughter of Sulla, whom he later divorced.
