So I'm thinking up a motto for my family's crest... since we don't have one..

I'm voting on "Pantheon est possible, nihil est gratis" although I don't think possible is possible...

thoughts?

possible, is not in fact possible, i shall think upon it, for i did take latin during highschool, 2 years infact, and i plan on taking more next semester. i was pretty good, but ill get back to you, otherwise its not too bad, i think there are some endings that are wrong, but i personally am too lazy to try to recognize, so thats that.

alright i did some thinking and i figured you wanted the phrase to mean something along the lines of "Everything is possible, Nothing is free."

and its a good start, but everything in latin is omnia, and the root for possible is possum.

so Everything is possible would be something along the lines of:

Omnia possibilia sunt

and you dont have to have the words sunt or est in the phrase if you dont want too, for in latin, especially with phrases, they are sometimes left out, but it is up to you really.

people used to speak greek and write in latin in rome and roman colonies, it was mostly just for writing though.
