Famous quotes containing the words roman and/or deities:
“The Roman world is in collapse but we do not bend our neck.”
—Jerome (c. 340–420)
“The gods themselves,
Humbling their deities to love, have taken
The shapes of beasts upon them. Jupiter
Became a bull, and bellowed; the green Neptune
A ram, and bleated; and the fire-robed god,
Golden Apollo, a poor humble swain.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
