Quotes4

  • Crassus: Are you not aware of Rome's most ancient law? That no General may enter the city at the head of his armed legions?
  • Glabrus: Sulla did.
  • Crassus: Sulla? To the infamy of his name! To the utter damnation of his line. No, my young friend. One day I shall cleanse this Rome which my fathers bequeathed me. I shall restore all the traditions that made her great. It follows that I can not come to power or defend myself by an act which betrays the most sacred tradition of all. I shall *not* bring my legions within these walls. I shall *not* violate Rome at the moment of possessing her.
  • Glabrus: How were you able to get my appointment without Gracchus knowing?
  • Crassus: I fought fire with oil. I purchased the Senate behind his back.
  • Marcus Licinius Crassus: What sort of a man is this leader of the slaves?
  • Marcus Publius Glabrus: I don't know. I think they called him Spartacus.
  • Glabrus: Tomorrow I lead six cohorts of the garrison against the slaves on Vesuvius. The whole city is turning out to see us off!
  • Crassus: Great merciful bloodstained gods!
  • [sarcastically]
  • Crassus: Your pardon. I always address heaven in moments of triumph.
