What is the Roman quote about death?
Mors Vincit Omnia
Death is the end. It can't be avoided, and everyone succumbs to death at some point. The Romans summed this up poignant in death conquers all or mors vincit omnia.
What was the famous Roman slogan?
Throughout his long reign Augustus had one motto. He emphasized it to his generals and thought it so important that he had coins minted with an image symbolizing it: festina lente. Make haste, slowly.
What did Marcus Aurelius say about death?
“The longest-lived and those who will die soonest lose the same thing. The present is all that they can give up, since that is all you have, and what you do not have, you cannot lose.”
