TODAY A QUOTE FROM A LEADER LONG AGO, JULIUS CAESAR.
"VENI, VEDI, VECI." - I CAME, I SAW, I CONQUERED!
ANOTHER WRITING OF HIS WORDS ARE LISTED BELOW, HEED TO THESE, DO THEY REFER TO OUR TIMES TODAY. YOU BE THE JUDGE!!!!!
“Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar.”
― Julius Caesar
