The Last Days of Pompeii

The Last Days of Pompeii1935



Cleon, the Slave Dealer:
I don't think you should look down on me, my friend. Aren't we in the same business? We both furnish amusement for the people.

Marcus:
I risk my life with the man I'm fighting. You buy and sell wretches to be slaughtered as a spectacle. I'm not proud of myself, but, by Jupiter, compared to you I'm a holy man.

Cleon, the Slave Dealer:
You will never be an old one. It isn't bravery that survives; it's brains.

Marcus:
Yes, it is well known that the rat lives longer than the lion, but who wants to be a rat? I wouldn't do your dirty work - not to save my life!
