Laetentur caeli
Rorate coeli de super et nubes pluant justi
Cantate domino canticum novum in psalterio et tympano
Justorum animae in manu Dei sunt
and other random lines from choir anthems I've sung in the past year. :-)

11. I can say the entire Pledge of Allegiance in Latin |

Had to learn it for a competition in high school (yep, I took Latin). Not sure that I could spell that whole thing out though...but here's part of it.
Cum libertatae, iustitiaquae, omnibus. (With liberty and justice for all)

15. Just thought of something my Latin teacher stuck in our heads |
|
Semper ubi sub ubi ( direct it's "always where under where")
She said she always got ubi (where) and ibi (there) confused, so she made this up so she'd remember.
She also put the declension endings to silly songs for us...I still remember them too!

Love and f-ck anything you see. Or is it Love and screw anyone who wants to...?
No, wait...it's 'Love, and do what you wish'. Or is that: do who like....
Okay, okay. It's by St. Augustine of Hippo. Yeah, the famous, and as a youth highly oversexed sinner who become the greatest Christian theological source for a thousand years.
It's 'love and do according to your desire', and it's actually wonderful advice to people who are good by habit and intention. Still, a lot of ruthless people have much enjoyed reading Augustine's maxim in the way they preferred.

(pron: "hee noo-kays")...that's the Latin for "deez nuts", which you'll recognise if you're familiar with the ouevre of one Mr Calvin Broadus (aka Snoop Dogg).

I still don't know if that was an amazing idea or an unbelievably cruel one.
I'd love to go back and see how those kids turned out.

II.89
quod nimio gaudes noctem producere uino ignosco: uitium, Gaure, Catonis habes. carmina quod scribis Musis et Apolline nullo laudari debes: hoc Ciceronis habes. quod uomis, Antoni; quod luxuriaris, Apici. quod fellas, uitium dic mihi cuius habes?
(which cannot be translated without incurring the wrath of the moderators...)
And the ever popular...
II.87:
dicis amore tui bellas ardere puellas, qui faciem sub aqua, Sexte, natantis habes.
(which can be translated without incurring the wrath of the moderators...)
You say that the pretty girls are burning with love for you - you, Sextus, who have the face of a man swimming under water!
