“Amat victoria curam”
(Catullus, Roman poet)
This Latin phrase translates to
“victory loves preparation.”
It conveys the idea that success is the result of careful planning, attention to detail, and leaving nothing to chance.
While others may attribute the outcome to “luck,” in truth, it is a testament to thorough preparation.
Gaius Valerius Catullus (84 BCE – 54 BCE) was a Roman poet renowned for his deeply expressive lyric poetry, which captures themes of love and hatred and remains celebrated as some of the finest works in ancient Roman literature.
