Answer 12

Julius Gaius Caesar (cerca 101 B.C. - 44 B.C.) said it.  It roughly translates as  "I came, I saw, I conquered."

Caesar reportedly used this sentence in a message to the Roman Senate describing his victory in the Battle of Zela (which took place in 47 B.C.) in what is known today asTurkey.

Answer 19

Darn, I thought it was French! According to this link it's Latin. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veni,_vidi,... So *that's* the "I came, I saw, I conquered" line I've heard in movies. Ohhhh! Interesting what you can learn from other people's questions. Since so many people have used that or a variation it would be interesting to find out who really said it. Julius Caesar was the original? http://www.quotationspage.com/quote/2432... http://www.quoteworld.org/quotes/2284 I'd probably heard that in one of my English classes, but I don't remember. I'm lucky I remember my name from day to day.
