Hello!!
It's awesome to have a whole forum just for latin! I took latin during a whole year on high school but I don't remember much, really.
My little brother got accepted and he's going to go to the state's uni. He'll be studying law. Anyway, he wanted an ipad and I thought it would be a good gift for him. I saw we can have some text engraved into it and i have thought one of these two options would be okay:
Constantia fundamentum est omnium virtutum
Scientia est potentia
Yet, i'm not so sure if they're correctly written.
Specially the second one, is it:
A) Scientia est potentia
B) scientia ipsa potentia est
C) ipsa scientia potestas est
Could somebody help me please?
I saw this thread: THREAD: knowledge-is-power
"Scientia est potentia." and said that was right...but also: "Ipsa scientia potestas est."
So maybe the worst option might be B...but what's the diffrence then?
Thank you for your help!!
