 Karl Marx  1867

Yes, a good one. Then there's this:
 
This was the response that King Leonidas of Sparta gave to the Persian leader Xerxes when he told them to "lay down their arms" at the beginning of the Battle of Thermopylae......
 
'Molon labe'.............."Come and get them"
 
Which would be just as good a response today as it was 2,489 years ago.
