What is that foreign-language slogan I see here and there?
Tu ne cede malis sed contra audentior ito. It is from Virgil and it means “do not give in to evil but proceed ever more boldly against it.” Mises wrote in 1940, after he arrived in New York having fled Europe, that he chose this sentence as a young man to be his guide in life. He returned to it again and again as he faced threats and adversity on all sides. We have it printed in the Mises Institute conservatory in many languages, and it often appears on Mises Institute t-shirts and the like.
