I'm looking for something deep in Latin...?

Question

I'm looking for a latin phrase (and translation) with a deep thought-provoking meaning.

Thank you :)

Answer 1

Nil desperadum, this means "Never say die"
Caveat Emptor, "Let the buyer beware"

Answer 2

if you don't speak latin yourself, how will you know that the phrase someone recommends to you doesn't have a different meaning from the one they tell you it does?

i had a friend once who bought a very expensive flame-red shot-silk blouse with an attractive chinese character design on it.

if you knew chinese the characters said:

FIRE DAMAGED GOODS. SALE. CHEAP!

i saw a young woman with an even more embarassing tattoo in chinese only three weeks ago.

i didn't say anything to her. a tattoo is much harder to change than a $900 blouse.

Answer 3

Carpe diem
Seize the day!
All that comes to mind.

Answer 4

Nil desperadum means "Never despair!"

Answer 5

veni vidi vici
where particular people congregate
