fiat iustitia pereat mundus

In a rough translation it means:
"Justice just may destroy the world"
or
"Let justice destroy the world"

fiat - Let/He May/Become
iustitia - Justice
pereat - Perish/Death
mundus- World/Heaven/Universe


Open for Debate


Also the whole quote for Mundus Vult Decipi... which can be by itself, which also translates as :
Mundus Vult Decipi Ergo Decipitaur
which means :
The world wishes to be decieved.... so let it be decieved.


Of course Mundus Vult Decipi fits much closely to that of the two.

fiat iustitia, pereat mundus is a sentence we looked at in latin law. In our class it was translatet by "justice has to be done, even if it will destroy the world".

Finally someone who actually thinks about the title! smile.gif

Well thats more fitting than "The world wants to be decieved" which is a profound and kind of bleakly cool philosophical statement, but I dont see how it relates to brainbread
