Veni, vidi, vici. ~Julius Caesar

                        I came, I saw, I conquered

After winning a war in Egypt and installing Cleopatra on he throne, Caesar went to Asia Minor and won a victory over Pharnaces II, King of Pontus. ‘Veni, Vidi, Vici’ is the brief dispatch he sent to the Roman Senate, reporting this victory in 47 B.C., and expressing the supreme confidence of the greatest man of action in the history of the world; a great orator and, writer, statesman, and military leader. A few men can claim genius in one of these fields, but no other man in history approaches the accomplishments of Julius Caesar in all of them. It is an irony of history that the influence of Caesar who did ‘bestride the narrow world like a colossus,’ was eclipsed by a poor carpenter in an obscure village in the backwaters of the Roman Empire. (taken from Latina Christiana I Teacher’s Manual, by Cheryl Lowe)
