    liberate me ex inferis. - save me from hell.

    Thank you, Event Horizon! :p

    And veni, vidi, vici means "I came, I saw, I conquered."

    Oh! And then there's Enta arma, enim silent legis. - In war, the law is silent.

    BultarSwan wins at this game.

    If I felt creative right now, I'd find some good english phrases to translate. But physics homework awaits.
