This was in the Colosseum Museum and we all thought it was interesting.
"(The romans) great robbers of the world, after all the lands have been diminished by their devastation are exploiting the sea, greedy if the enemy is rich, arrogant if he is poor. They cannot get enough of either the East or the West; they alone desire to possess with equal madness the richness and the misery of nations. Under the false name of empire they pass off robbery, murder and pillage: and when they have achieved desolation, they call it peace."
Tacitus, Agricola, 30, 4
