What is the meaning of quotation "the die is cast"?
2007-06-08 04:13:18 · update #1
Where there are two, it's dice
When only one - it's a die
And when one throws a die, it has been cast
Means the decision has been taken - the choice has been made. You have rolled, and now you live with the result.

It means that they have always rooted for the same team. They never get ashamed of their team. They watch every game they can no matter how far back the team is in the standings or how bad the team is losing the game. They never give up hope on their team winning. Pretty much, they stick with their team through the good and the bad, and belive in their team through the good and bad. I know I'm a die hard fan. I watch every Yankee game during the year when I'm home and I never believe a game is over untill the last out is made. Last year when the Yanks missed the playoffs, I still watched every game and didn't lose hope since they were mathmaticly eliminated. I'm never ashamed of the Yanks no matter how much money they spend or what players they have on the team. And, I've been a fan for as long as I can remember.

The origin of it was when Caesar violated the prohibition against taking an army across the Rubicon River, to threaten the Senate. He said at that point "Alea jacta est", "the die is cast", meaning that the chance was taken, the bets were on the table, and there was no turning back.

'Die' is the singular of dice. 'The die is cast', means the die has been thrown. Which, non-literally, mean that it is too late to stop play, or the situation. Everything has already been set into motion.
Hope I helped.

The dice have been rolled, all bets are off...in other words it's too late, you've made your decision!

It suggests no going back, the battleline has been drawn or the milk is split and there is nothing anyone can do about it.
