on a trip to the big city I ended up in a bad neighbourhood, one of those no-go zones I keep hearing about, admittedly, I was tactless and rude and in the end I had to make a run for it.

A quotation from Horace:

«
The glorious and the decent way of dying
Is for one’s country. Run, and death will seize
You no less surely. The young coward, flying,
Gets his quietus in the back and knees.
 
[Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori:
mors et fugacem persequitur virum
nec parcit inbellis iuventae
poplitibus timidoque tergo.]
»
