description: "Quintus Corellius Rufus was a Roman senator who flourished during the second half of the first century; he was suffect consul for the nundinium of September–October 78 with Lucius Funisulanus Vettonianus as his colleague. Rufus is best known as a mentor to Pliny the Younger. In several letters Pliny writes warmly of Rufus, noting that he often sought his advice, recounting in one that on his deathbed Rufus told his daughter, \"Through the benefit of a longer life I have gained many friends for you, but above all Secundus [Pliny the Younger] and Cornutus.\""
