I. Martial's humor

Quem recitas meus est, o Fidentine, libellus;
sed male cum recitas, incipit esse tuus!


The little volume (of poetry) that you reciting is mine, Fidentinus;
But when you recite it badly, it begins to be yours!


I physically LOL after I read this in IC.

Quam non amare linguam Latinam potes!
(How can you not love Latin language!)
