    Default Source for quotes?

    Especially this one: “Here comes the bald whore mongeror, Romans lock your wives away”

    I love all of these loading screen quotes can you post a link to your sources for them?

    Thanks in advance

    The new format for quotes will be much improved in future releases of RTR.

    The particular one you mention is taken from Suetonius' "The life of Caesar", 51, 1. The quote in Latin is:

    "urbani, seruate uxores: moechum caluom adducimus. / aurum in Gallia effutuisti, hic sumpsisti mutuum."

    (there is an extra bit, but it uses rather strong language)

    It is part of a Carmen Triumphale, the song chanted by Caesar's soldiers as they marched behind him through the streets of Rome.
