The quotation below attributed to Julius Caesar is good, but as an astute visitor pointed out to me, it is most probably erroneous, a fake. I have not been able to find the source for it anywhere from anyone.

Wikipedia possesses the same quotation and this was last edited in February 2002 which is the earliest I have seen it appear.
- From Kuro5hin.org on this quotation.
- Someone at Mojo’s Daily Grind reports it as first appearing in October of 2001.

  I find it strange that something like this can happen so rapidly. That quote is all over the web. If Julius Caesar did not write it, I wonder who did.
