Quotable Quotes

... for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.


cum sitis mali ex abundantia enim cordis os loquitur

Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori, sed dulcis pro patria vivere, et dulcissimum pro patria bibere. Ergo, bibamus pro salutae patriae.
"It is sweet and right to die for the homeland, but it is sweeter to live for the homeland, and the sweetest to drink for it. Therefore, let us drink to the health of the homeland."

Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori:
mors et fugacem persequitur uirum
nec parcit inbellis iuuentae
poplitibus timidoue tergo.
(Quintus Horatius Flaccus) Horace's Odes III, 2.13
