I speak not by seer-craft but by experience

From LSJ

Ubi idem et maximus et honestissimus amor est, aliquando praestat morte jungi, quam vita distrahi → Where indeed the greatest and most honourable love exists, it is much better to be joined by death, than separated by life.

Valerius Maximus, De Factis Dictisque
