Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears;

The evil that men do lives after them,
The good is oft interred with their bones,
So let it be with Caesar ... The noble Brutus
Hath told you Caesar was ambitious:
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Caesar answered it ...
Here, under leave of Brutus and the rest,
(For Brutus is an honorable man;
So are they all; all honorable men)
Come I to speak in Caesar's funeral ...
He was my friend, faithful and just to me:
But Brutus says he was ambitious;
And Brutus is an honorable man….
He hath brought many captives home to Rome,
Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill:
Did this in Caesar seem ambitious?
When that the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept:
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff:
Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;
And Brutus is an honorable man.
You all did see that on the Lupercal
I thrice presented him a kingly crown,
Which he did thrice refuse: was this ambition?
Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;
And, sure, he is an honorable man.
I speak not to disprove what Brutus spoke,
But here I am to speak what I do know.
You all did love him once, not without cause:
What cause withholds you then to mourn for him?
O judgement! thou art fled to brutish beasts,
And men have lost their reason…. Bear with me;
My heart is in the coffin there with Caesar,
And I must pause till it come back to me.

I typed mine from memory....

MA, Mazo was making a joke.

[Marcus Aurelius]

Yes of course. I see that now.

“The Comedy of Errors!” The trouble with this forum is that you can never overestimate the twists and turns a thread might take; hence, you must look at them all lest you miss something. Who’d have thought that a thread on pi could be so infinitely amusing. All that’s needed now is for the foolishly grinning Malvolio to appear in goofy yellow stockings and cross-garters!

I try to have my celebratory piece of Pie at 1:59 each year, actually. This year it was peach. Which may be TMI and lose me all my Brownie Points with my favorite ladies here. Ah well... the price of science.

[Marcus Aurelius]

Wrong use does not preclude proper use, or,
is not an argument against proper use

Shows ya what google knows. I did not take latin. Google is (sort of) my friend.
