I think its a movie anyway lol. Its annoying me trying to think were ive heard it.

It goes something like this.


"in ancient rome they gave power to send one man to go outside and defend the city from invaders"

then someone else says

"yeh, but that one man they sent out happened to be julius caeser and he never gave up his power".

Im just thinking right this second it may have been Valkeriye but im not sure.

It's not Valkyrie, just done a word search on script.
sad I know

It's from The Dark Knight, Rachel Dawes says it to Harvey Dent:

DENT: When their enemies were at the gate, the Romans would suspend democracy and appoint one man to protect the city. It wasn't considered an honor. It was considered public service.

RACHEL: And the last man they asked to protect the republic was named Caesar. He never gave up that power.
