The Greek phrase MolÅ?n labe! (Μολὼν λαβέ; approximate Classical Greek pronunciation [moˈloË?n laˈbe], Modern Greek [moˈlon laˈve]), meaning "Effort [το] take [them]!", is a classical expression of defiance reported by Plutarch, roughly corresponding to the modern equivalent English phrase "over my dead body". It is an exemplary use of a laconic phrase.
yeah, added this to my sig. i think this would make a great engraving for the side of my kel-tec. i'm sure a DA would find a way to turn my self defense into pre-meditated murder with that kind of foresight though.

I'm somewhat fond of this motto, similar to the above mentioned "molon labe":
