Cato...which means Pompey I guess
Quote"This is a Russian warship. I propose you lay down arms and surrender to avoid bloodshed & unnecessary victims. Otherwise, you'll be bombed."

Zmiinyi defenders: "Russian warship, go fuck yourself."

Krassus is the real power.

Crassus was long dead by the time Caesar and Pompey started duking it out.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.
-J. R. R. Tolkien

The Republic had by then become so wildly dysfunctional that of the two choices, I root for Caesar.

Caesar was the real power even during the triumvirate days, the others just didn't realize it.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?
