Translate English into Latin

Can someone please translate these two phrases:

King of the Road

and

Get Your Kicks

I'm working on an odd project involving heraldry, and I'm looking for two Latin translations, one for the title and the other for a motto.

The first one is fairly straight forward, but the second one is idiomatic... and yes it has to do with route 66.

The first is indeed straightforward:
Rex Viae

As for the second, are you looking for the idiomatic Latin equivalent?
If so, I have no idea.

Thanks a bunch for that... I was thinking it was something simple like that. I had no idea how simple. I first considered French... (Roi De La Rue?).

I guess I'm looking for something that means "Get Your Kicks." If there is something idionmatic to latin, that would be great. Otherwise perhaps something to the point like "Grasp Your Excitement" - CARPE [something]? It sort of explains it in my blog (with a picture) if you want to look at the project I'm working on... It might make more sense. I'm looking for a motto to go on the banner.

Thanks again for the first translation,

JF-L aka Fugli

Well, in that case, you may want "Carpe concitationem"

Thank you yet again.. I thinks that may do nicely.

George your my hero...lol....i knew i should of paid attention in all the years of latin lol but anyway i am gunna bug you for a translation..and thank you so much for all of the translations.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small people who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing."

thank you again George

I would like the most plebian word for Talk. Imagine plain green lettering on the money line, bon-bons with little gold music notes above them, and swirling. gooey letters for the chocolate line. I am sure you get the idea. I and my daughter who is awaiting this confection thank you.

Pecunia Dicit; Chocolatum Cantat.

Ive got one. Trying to come up with a title for a paper im writing...

"Question Everything..."

I found Etiam or Quis for 'question'...wasnt sure which..

or

'Inquire' had cognosco, percontor, percunctor, scosco

i couldnt come up with a word for 'everything' but found Universitas for 'whole'

Quis Universitas?

im confused...lol

thanks for the help...

In this case, I'd use the verb "addubito" for "question."
The imperative is "addubita."
Geneerally use "omnia" for "everything."

So...

Omnia addubita.

Literally, "nullae fines," but a more common way of expressing the idea is
"sine fine", "without limit."

All you need is to change the form of the verbs.
Right now it says: "I always teach; I always learn"
You want "Semper erudi; semper disce"

What a fascinating thread - I've sat here and read through all 166 pages. It's amazing to see how and why people want to use latin.

My own query is for an online game - a translation of our slogan into latin:

"Isn't it time you learned how to fight back"

I tried one of those online translators, but I don't have a huge amount of faith in them, so your assistance would be very greatfully received.

my thanks in advance.

Hello George
I'm stuggling with a phrase for a title of a scientific paper that sends up a lot of theories of matter. I'd like to add a layer of complexity and pretentiousness for the scientific audience by casting the title in Latin. I'm looking for brevity, profundity and -if possible- humour.
A few of ideas:

In light is truth
True Light
The truth is light (double entendre)
Light truth (ditto)
Light casts Truth
The Voice of Light

Any suggestions?
Cheers
