Badass Latin Phrase Socks
Description: Daring to try something new or difficult can be intimidating -- the Latin phrase "qui audet adipiscitur" (which translates to "who dares, wins") is even more true now than it was in ancient Rome. It takes courage to push through the uncertainty and difficulties, but daring to try is the only path to triumph!
Description: Thus passes the glory of the world; a Latin sentence spoken during the coronation of a new Pope, while flax is burned to represent the transitoriness of earthly glory. It was first used at the coronation of Alexander V in Pisa, 7 July 1409, but is earlier in origin; it may ultimately derive from ‘O quam cito transit gloria mundi [Oh how quickly the glory of the world passes away]’ in the De Imitatione Christi of Thomas à Kempis.

Description: When we forget our own mortality, we forget how precious life is. We forget to appreciate the beauties and riches of both the chaos and mundanity of life. We forget to experience the world to its fullest, and in stead we hide behind the false notion that “we’ll do it tomorrow”.
Description: No matter how beautiful, love can also hurt. This expression refers to the pain love can inflict upon one’s soul especially if we’re talking about unrequited love.

Description: Latin phrases don't get much more iconic than "alea iacta est," or "the die is cast," an expression reportedly uttered by Julius Caesar as he crossed Italy's Rubicon river with his army. Of course, it works equally well when you've got the wheels in motion for a brilliant plan that doesn't involve civil war.
Description: Meaning the phrase "Love Conquers All" the phrase was used in the roman times when Caravaggio created a painting between 1601 and 1603 for Marchese Vincenzo Giustiniani, one of the wealthiest men in Rome. The painting of 'Amor Vincit Omnia' shows Amor (the Roman Cupid) wearing dark eagle wings, half-sitting on or perhaps climbing down from what appears to be a table. Scattered around are the emblems of all human endeavours – violin and lute, armour, coronet, square and compasses, pen and manuscript, bay leaves, an astral globe, tangled and trampled under Cupid’s foot.
Description: The correct translation would be “Family before all (others)” - but it is in the wider sense of extended family, or perhaps clan, if you prefer. An analogy is the phrase “Blood is thicker than water.” Family / blood loyalty comes first in many cultures. In cultures where people had ‘many children' and didn't travel a great deal, you would (and still can) build up large webs or nets of interconnected / multigenerational family groups.
