www.imdb.com/title/tt0058085/quotes/?ref_=tt_trv_quThe Fall of the Roman Empire (1964) Quotes Lucilla: As the dog fears the eagle, as the lamb fears the wolf, so is my heart and head with fear. Oh, mother Vesta, eternal mother of Vulcan, help me. Bring back the health of my father. Protect us from the danger which hangs - over the Empire. Let there be peace, over all Vulcan.

I thought, by living alone away from the world, I could find peace. Then I found there is no real peace in being alone. There is only loneliness.  |

Honorable fathers and Senators of Rome! Have you heard what is being proposed? Gaius Martellus Livius, has asked that we, the Roman Senate should give these barbarians, these savages Roman citizenship and settle them on Roman lands. To treat these wondering murderers as brothers, equals.  |

Timonides: Hatred means wars. Wars mean tribute torn from our provinces, taxes, hunger, disease. How costly that is! How wasteful! And yet the answer is simple. We must have no war.  Commodus’ henchman: No war? When your friends continually attack us?

Let us take them among us. Let the heart of the empire grow with us. Honorable fathers, we have changed the world. Can we not change ourselves?  |

No Livius, please don't bring me his head. I wouldn't know what to do with it.  |

This was the beginning of the fall of the Vulcanian Empire. A great civilization is not conquered from without, until it has destroyed itself from within.  |

 Although I've been a slave, I'm not acostumed to pain. Although a philosopher, I am weak.
