I'm an over 60 Italian guy, born and still resident in the nicest Italian region (which one ? obviously Tuscany .. !!) Even if I can't remember quite a lot of my old dated classical studies I'm always attracted by any question relevant to Latin and quite often I attempt giving my answers. One of my preferred Latin quotes, that I guess is perfectly fitting this context, says: "AB UNO, DISCE OMNES" (from one, learn all), but many other Latin phrases have in some way guided my whole lifestyle since I've always considered them the utmost expression of the human wisdom. I'm really fond of this awesome old language that's also the root of my Italian mother-tongue. Just so you know I really dislike on line translators and I can't understand why many people are using them to answer questions here on Y/A and are even recommending to others their use.!!
