Quintus Horatius Flaccus [December 8, 65 B.C.E.-November 27, 8 B.C.E.] was a leading lyric poet of ancient Rome. He became known to the modern world through the Anglicization of his name as Horace. Among his odes, he penned a famous line that included the phrase 'Carpe diem'. He may not have invented the phrase. But he was the one who ensured the immortality of its use all the way down to the present day.
