FLavius Valerius Constantinus Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 (edited) BTW, does anyone know the source of my sig? I got it from an old Latin assignment! Uh Seneca?

Q Valerius Scerio Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 In hoc signo vinces - the phrase that marked the beginning of Rome's death. But that is topic for another thread. My personal favorite is: Id est, quod est. Therein sums up my entire philosophy. (Incidentally, I made it up as well.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludovicus Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Romae Romane Age "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." Literally: At Rome, Romanly do. Eight words in English, but three words in Latin. That's one of the beauties of the Latin Language. Here's another one of my favorites often found on tombstones: Hodie mihi, cras tibi. "Today to me, tomorrow to you." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
