Julius Caesar
Roman Leader, 100 BC - 44 BC
“As a rule, men worry more about what they can't see than about what they can.”
“I am prepared to resort to anything, to submit to anything, for the sake of the commonwealth.”
“Bid me run, and I will strive with things impossible.”
“It is not these well-fed long-haired men that I fear, but the pale and the hungry-looking.”
“What a terrible era in which idiots govern the blind.”
“I have lived long enough to satisfy both nature and glory.”
“Men in general are quick to believe that which they wish to be true.”
“You blocks, you stones, you worse than senseless things!”
“I have always reckoned the dignity of the republic of first importance and preferable to life.”
“Fortune, which has a great deal of power in other matters but especially in war, can bring about great changes in a situation through very slight forces.”
“I have lived long enough both in years and in accomplishments.”
