Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a pieceof classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock,a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the moreobscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through thecites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source.

Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum”(The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on thetheory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum,”Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..”, comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
