Non composita legio heroum. Heroes sunt quos legio necat. (Please tell me how I'm butchering my Latin here, still learning!) Yeah, I get nothing from a quick search too. I wouldn't even think to know who would have said something so mundane about the legions. Cesar would never have said something like that. The closest that I can think of would be Pompey, but such a saying would have been too glib even for him. |

I expect "don't be a hero" would be a very, very common sentiment expressed to a legionnaire during his training. It's a little more pithy than "hold the line or you'll get killed and fuck things up for everybody else."
