Iconoclasm

Mar 01, 2010 18:54

I made myself a couple of new icons, look :) (one accompanying post, one in a comment below)

And can I just say: Cicero, I adore you. Only Cicero would write something like:

Catilinam orbem terrae caede atque incendiis vastare cupientem nos consules perferemus?

Cic. In Cat. 1.1.3

classics, cicero, random, icons, latin

Ok, your LJ needs to come with a dictionary.

I had to look up a couple of words in that Cicero quote, and I still don't think I have it..."if Catiline wants to waste the earth with flames and ____, should we consuls prefer it?" *ponders*

should we consuls prefer it?

I think you've misread 'perferemus' and 'preferemus' there :)

I think I'll make a separate post showing how it all comes together now there's been so much interest!

I'm going to make a separate post explaining how it fits together, but for now do feel free to keep working on it (and post your workings out here if you like)!
