La locuzione latina Hannibal ante portas, oppure Hannibal ad portas, tradotta letteralmente, significa Annibale è alle [nostre] porte. (Cicerone, De finibus, IV, 9. e Livio, XXIII, 16).

"Io non odio persona al mondo, ma vi sono cert'uomini ch'io ho bisogno di vedere soltanto da lontano".
Ugo Foscolo - "Ultime lettere di Jacopo Ortis"
