Pretty close. These are all famous Latin sayings. Mostly from plays and literature.

And I'll bet that person would be driving an SUV while talking on their cell phone and eating McDonalds with kids in the back watching TV like they're in the goddam living room.

And regarding the 1st one... I'm really surprised how close I was! I was just kidding around...

Litteral translation: "Monkey that resembles, shameful/disgusting/repulsive beast, ourselves."

i.e.
<heston>"Take your hands off of me, you DAMNED DIRTY APE!" ... "They did it, they finally went and did it!!"</heston>

Any chance Planet of the Apes was based on that quote?

I love that movie!
