“I give so that you give.” Principle that reflects the essence of the Roman term beneficium : A favor (beneficium) obliges the recipient to be grateful, ie to give something in return that is not too short and in no way less.
Seneca deals with this in de beneficiis and more briefly in No. 81 of the Epistulae morales . The correct measure in gratitude also marks the wise: “Nemo referre gratiam scit nisi sapiens” [“Only the wise knows how to give thanks”] (epistulae morales 81:13).

In an amusing anecdote, Seneca the Elder tells how the comedy poet Laberius used this dictum to repay Cicero for an evil. Laberius had been accepted into the knighthood by Caesar; when he was supposed to take a seat with the knights, they moved together so that there was no place for him there. In addition, Caesar had appointed a large number of new senators to the Senate, to which Cicero was a member. When Cicero saw Laberius passing by, he called out to him: "I would like to make room for you if I weren't so cramped." Laberius' answer to Cicero, who at the time could neither choose Caesar nor Pompey, it himself but didn't want to spoil with anyone was: "But you always sit on two chairs."

Dulce

Dulce bellum inexpertis.
“The war seems sweet to those who have not experienced it.” Erasmus von Rotterdam , Adagium 3001. See also The Lamentation of Peace .
Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori.
“It is sweet and honorable to die for the fatherland.” This famous quote from Horace comes from his songs (Carmina 3: 2, 13). In reality, Horace probably does not glorify the death of a soldier. He refers to the two most important philosophical doctrines of his time, Epicureanism and the Stoa , and refers to their views of the summum bonum . For the Epicurean it is pleasure, for the Stoic it is virtus. According to Horace, dying for the fatherland as a dulce contradicts neither the Epicurean ideal nor, as an honestum, the stoic ideal, although both philosophical directions were skeptical of service to the state.
Dulce et Decorum est
Title of the most famous poem by the British poet Wilfred Owen , which he wrote at the end of 1917, but which was only published posthumously in 1920.
Dulce et utile
"The pleasant and the useful"
This compilation is based on Horace , Ars poetica 343f. back to where it says: "Omne tulit punctum, qui miscuit utile dulci / lectorem delectando pariterque monendo" ("All applause is won who mixes the useful with the pleasant / by pleasing the reader as well as admonishing").
Grabbe parodies this in his comedy “Joke, Satire, Irony and Deeper Meaning” by having the drunken schoolmaster say: “Utile cum dulci, schnapps with sugar! Today is going to be a sour day. "(1,1)

Dumb

"As long as the Colosseum will be available, Rome will stand as long as Rome will be, the world will be." Posted by Beda , in the original text: "Quamdiu Stabit Colysaeus Stabit et Roma. Quando cadet Colysaeus, cadet et Roma. Quando cadet Roma, cadet et mundus. " (" As long as the Colosseum will stand, Rome will also stand. When the Colosseum falls, Rome will fall. When Rome falls, the world will come to an end. ")
Dum Roma deliberat, Saguntum perit.
"While Rome is deliberating, Sagunto goes under.": Sagunto in today's Spain was a prosperous city, which allied itself with Rome against Carthage and attracted Hannibal's first attack, the beginning of the Second Punic War , because it was south of the Ebro River, the contractually agreed border between Rome and Carthage between the spheres of influence on both sides.
The historical moment to which the sentence refers is described by Polybios (3,20,2): “How was it possible that the Romans, who had announced war against the Carthaginians a year earlier, when they entered the area of ​​Sagunto? would come up, now that they had taken the city themselves, and discussed whether they should go to war or, on the contrary, not? "

Duo cum faciunt idem, non est idem.
"If two do the same thing, it's not the same."
The proverb is likely to derive from the comedy Adelphoe des Terence . There the old Micio says: "There are many indications in the person that easily suggest that when two people do the same thing, one can often say: 'He may do this with impunity, the other cannot' - not because the matter is unequal, but he who does it. "(821–825)
Compare also: Quod licet Iovi, non licet bovi.
Duobus litigantibus tertius gaudet.
“When two people argue, the third is happy.” - See also Tertius gaudens , the laughing third

Duodecim

Duodecim tabulas loquuntur.
"They speak like the Twelve Tables." (Seneca, Epistulae morales 114.13)
