What does the latin phrase Vita est brevis 'ars longa' vicis volatilis experiment proditus ratio difficilis translate to in English?
Vita est brevis life is short ars longa art long (here and in the rest of the phrase, "est," 3rd singular person active form of the verb to be, is carried from the previous part to the rest so to mean "art IS long") vicis volatilis change swift, change is swift experiment proditus ratio difficilis (here "experiment" should probably read "experimentUM" to make any sense, since "experiment" is not declined.) If so,: "experience having being put forth consideration is difficult" Hope this helps.

What was the Latin that was written on the wall in the new moon movie?
I tried to piece together the words from the pictures, so I'm not sure how accurate it is, but here goes: Vita Brevis Ars Longa - Life is short, Art is long (part of a quote by Hippocrates) (there may be words in here, but I couldn't get a glimpse of that part of the walls) ? Est Supra Leges Et Sic Semper Erit - ? (unknown words?) is above the law and it is right and always will be (or ? is above the law - it has always been this way and always will be) Hope this helps :)
What is the Latin inscription on the wall of the Volturi throne room in New Moon?
The words are in Latin, "Sic semper erat, et sic semper erit". Actually, you can catch only the last part in the movie, but that's the whole saying. It means, "Thus it has always been, and thus it will always be". I think it refers to the Volturi's power, kind of their confidence in their rule. Or it could be a reference to their immortality. They're some of the oldest Vampires (so you can say they have always been) and they're not going to die (so they will always be.) It's an extremely self confident inscription that only Aro would think of putting on his castle walls. I tried to piece together the words from the pictures, so I'm not sure how accurate it is, but here goes: Vita Brevis Ars Longa - Life is short, Art is long (part of a quote by Hippocrates) (there may be words in here, but I couldn't get a glimpse of that part of the walls) ? Est Supra Leges Et Sic Semper Erit -(?) - No One is above the law; it is right and always will be (or) No One is above the law; it has always been this way and always will be). "Nemo Est Supra Legis Et Sic Semper Erit" -No one Is Above Law And So Always Will be "Vita Brevis Ars" -Life Short Artis. The translation would go something like this: " Life is short, Art is long. Death yours; life mine. No one is above the law. Thus it has always been and thus it will always be."
