Additional phrase: "Horae Canonicae"
The Wikipedia reference is the literal translation. The more idiomatic meaning is the English "high time". May I add this? Old_Wombat (talk) 11:32, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

homo homini lupus
homo homini lupus - man [is a] wolf to man

The entry for this sentence states First attested in Plautus' Asinaria (lupus est homo homini). The sentence was drawn on by Hobbes in Leviathan as a concise expression of his views on human nature. I searched the text of Leviathan (wikisource) but couldn't find this sentence.

This article (Homo homini lupus) says that Thomas Hobbes drew upon the proverb in his De Cive (writing in the dedication ...)

That is true. Hobbes wrote in his dedication That Man to Man is a kind of God; and that Man to Man is an arrant. Wolfe.

But why does the entry of this list mention the Leviathan as source of the sentence? 2003:CF:3F0A:8AE3:887B:5AA2:9758:F9AA (talk) 16:39, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
 * What you write is indeed described in the article homo homini lupus. I corrected it here now. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 01:45, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
