"They make a Desolation & they call it Peace"
"Whenever I consider the origin of this war and the necessities of our position, I have a sure confidence that this day, and this union of yours, will be the beginning of Freedom to the whole of Britain. To all of us slavery is a thing unknown; there are no lands beyond us, and even the Sea is not safe, menaced as we are by a Roman fleet. And thus in war and battle, in which the brave find Glory, even the coward will find safety.
Former contests, in which, with varying fortune, the Romans were resisted, still left in us a last hope of succour, inasmuch as being the most renowned nation of Britain, dwelling in the very heart of the country, and out of sight of the shores of the conquered, we could keep even our eyes unpolluted by the contagion of slavery.
...
Here at World's End, on its last inch of Liberty, we have lived unmolested to this day, defended by our remoteness and obscurity...
But there are no other tribes to come; nothing but sea and cliffs and these more deadly Romans whose arrogance you cannot escape by obedience and self-restraint.
Robbers of the World, now that the Earth falls into their all-devastating hands, they probe even the Sea; if their enemy have wealth, they have greed... (neither) East nor West has glutted them...
To plunder, butcher, steal, these things they misname Empire: they make a Desolation and they call it Peace." ~ Tacitus, 'The Agricola', "'Calgacus' speech' at Mons Graupus, 79AD"

Shut up with that bullshit. You're just tired of jerking off to the Da Vinci Code. Fuck off with that nonsense. Do you think the intelligent are keeping some kind of esoteric knowledge from you?
