But all my father ever said, to evince pride of ancestry, was in honor of William Caxton, citizen and printer in the reign of Edward IV., Clarum et venerabile nomen! an ancestor a man of letters might be justly vain of.

The collar-shanks were neatly coiled under the headstalls, the clothing tightly rolled and balanced above the little saddle-bags on the led horse, 'Multum in Parvo's' back, with the story-telling whip sticking through the roller.
They are due to the imperfect organization of our social system: qui multum probat, nihil probat, one loses himself through excessive caution, lacking what is necessary and having too much of what is superfluous."

Lots of fellows room together to save money, but it is too multum in too parvum; I think I prefer to spend the money. I have never resorted to it, even in my brokest days. I didn't leave my pipe here, did I? "'I haven't seen it, I said very coldly. "'Well, all right. Don't get cross about it.

She would face the last agonies of death when the bloom of her youthful strength and beauty was but opening as a rose in June. She would do more, she would brave the threatened vengeance of the most High, coming before Him a self murderess, and with but one plea for pity that she loved so well: quia multum amavit.
But though such occasional exclamations of impatience or regret more especially when in a comic vein may receive pardon, or even provoke amusement, yet a serious and sustained poetic version of Sterne's "sum multum fatigatus de uxore mea" would be unbearable in any writer of self-respect, and wholly out of character in Chaucer.
His libels and my answer are now before the world, and I leave them to the judgment of all honorable men. No. Non multa sed multum, is the cardinal maxim by which the student of law should be governed in his readings; at the commencement of his studies in the office of his legal preceptor, REPETITION REPETITION REPETITION.
