I'm Spartacus!
I'm Spartacus! is the catchphrase from the film Spartacus.
A famous scene of the movie has the recaptured slaves being asked to point out which one of them is Spartacus in exchange for leniency. Instead, they each proclaim themselves to be Spartacus and thus share his fate. This has sometimes been misidentified as historical fact, notably by Scottish politician George Galloway, who identifies Spartacus as his hero.
In May 2007 British soldiers in Iraq were reported to be wearing t-shirts bearing the slogan "I'm Harry!" in reference to the debate over whether Prince Harry should serve a tour of duty there. [1]
