From the last scene in THE FALL OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE...Senators bidding for the Empire...
Two million dinars
for the throne of Rome.
Two million dinars for the throne.
Two million five hundred thousand dinars.
Two million and seven hundred
fifty thousand dinars.
Two million...
Emperor of the greatest empire in history?
From Britain to Egypt?
Ruler of the world?
No! Much more!
Three million dinars
for the throne and the empire of Rome!
***
This was the beginning
of the fall of the Roman empire.
A great civilization
is not conquered from without,
until it has destroyed itself
from within.
....Yet for a very long time, the old scape goat was the Christians.
