Would that the Roman people had but one neck!
Let them hate me, so long as they fear me.
I scorn their hatred, if they do but fear me
I have existed from the morning of the world and I shall exist until the last star falls from the night. Although I have taken the form of Gaius Caligula, I am all men as I am no man, and therefore I am a god.
I don't care if they respect me so long as they fear me.
