The original words are about destroying Carthage. In the second Punic war Romans defeated Carthagians, but didn't destroy the town. Some times later, one of the famous roman politicians - Cato the Elder - ended every his speech in the Senate - on whatever subject - with those words. At the end, Roman senators found that there is no way to stop him besides starting a third Punic war and destroying Carthage - what they did.
