WHAT WE DO IN LIFE ECHOES IN ETERNITY

The Roman General Maximus is honored by the Roman Legions under his command

"Hold the line !

Stay with me !

If you find yourself alone,

riding in green fields with the sun on your face,

do not be troubled,

for you are in Elysium,

and you're already dead!!!"


The Ridley Scott movie "Gladiator"
