The Extremes of Good and Evil

After a meeting with a client today who was SO impressed with her knowledge of Latin (but not why it was used as dummy text) it is interesting to note that the passage "Lorem ipsum ..." is taken from text that reads, "Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit ...," which translates as, "There is no one who loves pain itself, who seeks after it and wants to have it, simply because it is pain...."

Obviously Cicero (author of de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum - The Extremes of Good and Evil, from which the Lorem ipsum jumble is lifted) doesn't know jack shit about graphic designers!
