New No evidence that Caesar said that.
[link|http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/bl-caesar-quote.htm|Here]. Note that [link|http://www.drudgereport.com/strei2.htm|Streisand] used that quote and said it was from Shakespeare, but there's no evidence that he wrote it either.

FWIW.

Cheers,
Scott.

New Yet it rings so very true


Beware the leader who beats the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils and hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar."
