[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Assiduus usus uni rei deditus et ingenium et artem saepe vincit. [/quote] I'm a PP with the BA Classics (Latin). What in the world does this sentence have to do with this thread? Rough translation - Dedication to the assiduous practice of a single thing often overcomes talent and creativity. Based on word order, I can tell you that 'assiduous practice' and 'overcomes' are especially emphasized in this sentence. Notice how they bookend the sentence? I don't know the context of the work it was taken from (and won't bother to look it up) but it would be interesting to analyze why the writer chose to highlight that. But, again, what does it have to do with this thread. Seems more appropriate for the political thread.[/quote]
