Excudent alii spirantia mollius aera (credo equidem), vivos ducent de marmore vultus, orabunt causas melius, caelique meatus describent radio et surgentia sidera dicent: tu regere imperio populos, Romane, memento (hae tibi erunt artes), pacique imponere morem, parcere subiectis et debellare superbos.

"The only certainty is that nothing is certain."
Roman poet of the Augustan age whose Aeneid is the founding national epic of Rome and Western literature's most-imitated hexameter poem. Closely associated with Ovid (younger Augustan poet of Metamorphoses) and Horace (third Augustan-era major poet). For an intellectual contrast, see Lucan, Roman poet (39-65 CE) of the Pharsalia — Lucan's Pharsalia explicitly rejected Virgilian Augustan epic by writing a civil-war epic that refused divine machinery and treated Roman empire as tragedy rather than destiny. Lucan's Pharsalia is a 60-years-later rebuke of the Aeneid's imperial theology — civil war as crime instead of providence.
