Contrary to popular thought, Lorem Ipsum's text is not simply random text. It has its roots in a classic piece of Latin literature, dating from 45 BC, making it more than 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at the University of Hampden-Sydney in Virginia, found one of the darkest words of the Latin language, "consecteur", in a passage by Lorem Ipsum, and while continuing to read different texts of Latin, discovered the undoubted source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finnibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in the year 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of the Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet ..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32

The piece of standard text of Lorem Ipsum used since the year 1500 is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions of the translation made in 1914 by H. Rackham.
