:38:03
We may not be able
to go home after all.
:38:42
Are you ready to do
your duty for Rome?
:38:49
Yes, Father.
:38:52
You will not be emperor.
:38:58
Which wiser, older man
is to take my place?
:39:01
My powers
will pass to Maximus...
:39:06
to hold in trust...
:39:08
until the senate
is ready to rule once more.
:39:14
Rome is to be
a republic again.
:39:21
- Maximus.
- Yes.
:39:31
My decision disappoints you?
:39:39
You wrote to me once...
:39:43
listing the four chief virtues.
:39:48
Wisdom, justice...
:39:52
fortitude...
:39:54
and temperance.
:39:59
As I read the list,
I knew I had none of them.
