The quote I have I got from a Merriam-Webster English Dictionary, which has a "Famous Quotations" section in the back, including many many Latin quotes, that's one of my favorites ~<br>
<br>
svaviter en modo, fortiter en re - which according to the dictionary means "Soft in Manner, Strong in Deed"<br>
<br>
actually I never bothered looking it up to double check it in my Latin dictionary...I hope that's the proper translation, that's what's written in the Dictionary....If anyone has corrections or whichever, I welcome them....Just keep in mind I've been used to that quote since High School so it's stuck in there!<br>
<br>
otherwise, I'm a big Bird person, so "MoDo" also is an abbriviation for Mourning Dove (<em>Zenaida macroura</em>) <p>-ANDY aka "Roman Dude" Svaviter in Modo, Fortiter in Re<br>
