Messed up that Latin became the language of the intelligentsia in the middle ages and therefore has more pedagogical materials available now, when Greek has classical authors you obviously should care more about. Like, it has the philosophers! Not to mention the New Testament (and the version of the Hebrew Bible that the authors of the New Testament were familiar with), the Iliad and the Odyssey, and Greek myths (let's be real nobody cares more about Roman myths than Greek myths). Yes, it's cool that Latin has De Rerum Natura, Apuleius, and Cato, and the tradition of scholarship is a nice bonus. But c'mon!
