Words of Wisdom From the Grave

"For over a thousand years Roman conquerors returning from the wars enjoyed the honor of triumph, a tumultuous parade.

In the procession came trumpeteers, musicians...

and strange animals from conquered territories...

together with carts laden with treasure and captured armaments.

The conquerors rode in a triumphal chariot...

The dazed prisoners walking in chains before him.

Sometimes his children robed in white stood with him in the chariot or rode the trace horses.

A slave stood behind the conqueror holding a golden crown and whispering in his ear a warning: that all glory is fleeting." - George C. Scott as Gen. George S. Patton
