Quote of the Day: “When beggars die, there are no comets seen; the heavens themselves blaze forth the death of princes.”
This famous quote by Julius Caesar comes from William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, where the line is spoken by Calpurnia’s husband, Julius Caesar, as the play builds toward one of its most dramatic moments. The quote of the day captures an ancient belief that extraordinary events in the heavens could signal the death or downfall of powerful people.
