"In his fifty-six years he was at times many things, including a fugitive, prisoner, rising politician, army leader, legal advocate, rebel, dictator â€“ perhaps even a god â€“ as well as a husband, father, lover and adulterer. Few fictional heroes have ever done as much as Caius Julius Caesar."

“But sovereign debt is a wider question not only in Europe but across the globe. While every country is a unique case, I think it's not an issue of countries acting on their own. We need a more coordinated strategy not only in Europe but around the world.”
“It's odd being an American now. Most of us are peaceful, but here we are again, in our fifth major war of this century.”
“He who is sorrowful can force himself to smile, but he who is glad cannot weep.”
