Subject: "Atque ubi solitudinem faciunt, pacem appelant." "And where they make a wilderness, they call it peace". From Tacitus, "The life of Cnaeus Julius Agricola". Attributed to a British leader, Galgacus, as a commentary on the Roman approach to securing "peace". Let us hope it is not prophetic once more.
In reply to: William 's message, "oderint dum metuant: Let them hate so long as they fear. - Lucius Accius - Roman tragic poet (170 BC) Believed to be a favorite saying of Caligula. Also translated as "let them hate us, so long as they fear us". Cicero said it. Seneca rebuked Cicero for saying it

Here is another good one by William Shakespeare, Cymbeline (Posthumus at II, v)

Yet 'tis greater skill

In a true hate to pray they have their will;

The very devils cannot plague them better." on 01:37:19 10/29/02 Tue
