Contrary to popular belief,
Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a
piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it
over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor
at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of
the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem
Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in
classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source.
Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de
Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and
Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise
on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance.
The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit
amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32."Lorem
ipsum dolor sit amet..","Lorem ipsum dolor sit
amet..""Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..",
