Your Favorite Roman Latin Quotes Maxims Mottos Sayings ?
#48
Two from renaissance Italy:

Aut Caesar Aut Nihil ('Either Caesar or Nothing' - supposedly the motto of the overly-ambitious Cesare Borgia!)

Nec Spe Nec Metu ('Without Hope, Without Fear' - motto of the painter Caravaggio)

And two suitably aggressive ones used by Scots regiments in the British army:

En Ferus Hostis ('Behold a Fierce Enemy')

Nemo me Impune Lacessit ('No one insults me with impunity')
