Being a fine pilot in WW1 does not mean that he stands in history as anything but a theiving looter of Europe without honour, does it? ( no disrespect to Perseus intended).

And the Caesar quote - is it from Caesars Gallic Wars or Shakespeare? If it is legit. you could use it for your signature as the Caesar quote without upsetting Perseus' Goering quote. Problem solved, just try to avoid assassination.

It is definitely not Shakespeare and if it is not Caesars then that would only indicate that the Goering quote is the original which oddly enough makes it even more lucid.

OK, shame, that. Never mind, look "I came, I saw, I conquered" - Julius Caesar. You could have that one.
