Latin is a long maze
Or at least it used to be
First it killed the Romans
Now it's killing me

All are dead
Whoever wrote it
All are dead
Whoever spoke it

All will die
Who try to learn it
Blessed dead
They surely earn it

Carpe Diem

I took Latin in high school, and the phrase that most stuck in my mind was: facile dictu difficile factu.

Be very watchful when in the presence of silent stealth cars - those Priae can be insanely dangerous
