Great Seal Mottoes
Novus Ordo Seclorum
A New Order of the Ages
The Latin motto "novus ordo seclorum" was suggested by Charles Thomson when he put together the final design for the reverse side of the Great Seal in June 1782:
"On the base of the pyramid the numerical letters MDCCLXXVI & underneath the following motto. 'novus ordo seclorum'"
The motto has been traced to Virgil, the renowned Roman poet who lived in the first century B.C. – to a line in his Eclogue IV, the pastoral poem that expresses the longing of the world for a new era of peace and happiness.
"Magnus ab integro seclorum nascitur ordo."
Virgil's line has been translated in different ways, including:
The great series of ages begins anew.
The ages' mighty march begins anew.
A mighty order of ages is born anew.
The majestic roll of circling centuries begins anew.

It is central to the vision of Jesus and of many Christians, of Gotama Siddartha and many Buddhists, of the authors of the Hindu scriptures and the Greek philosophers, of Gandhi in India and Basho in Japan, and the Canadian Inuit and the forest-dwellers of Africa and the Amazon. It is also often surprisingly congruent with, and often central to, the work of economists such as Adam Smith, Karl Marx and J.M. Keynes. It is also worth stating that, as an idea, it is intrinsically beautiful. The widespread western assumption that greed is good is therefore a dangerous and debased caricature, even in purely economic terms. Nevertheless, it is a caricature of a good idea: the idea that prosperity is a worthy and indispensible aspect of peace.
