Princeps Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 (edited) That it is within my power to rule over you for life is evident. However, I am mild by nature and have no wish to dominate.

Silentium Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 You hear this a lot but I don't remember who said it: Veritas filia temporis Truth is the daughter of time. So true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princeps Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 You hear this a lot but I don't remember who said it:Veritas filia temporis Truth is the daughter of time. So true. I disagree! In fact I feel the opposite is true. Time is an enemy of truth imo. Death and Glory are the twin sons of war. (slightly OT as it's a literary quote iird, but suitable I think).
