2 thousand & 50 ( or is it 60?) year anniversary since Julius Caesar fatefully ignored this advice, & other auguries.. Arrogance bordering on stupidity?, Or simply - the 'die is cast' Rubicon crossing bold military pragmatist.. Certainly, fellow dictators of more recent times such as Hitler & Stalin were not so sanguine in their approach.. Anyhow, Caesar himself, is today seen in a better light than those other two.. ------------- Be Modest In Thyself.. |
