Pompey the great more or less stamped out piracy in the Med for the Roman Republic. He was not a pirate himself.
I raid and plunder with one ship, I'm a pirate, you do it with a fleet, you're an imperial navy.

"Great spirits have often encountered violent opposition from weak minds."
Einstein
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down happy. They told me I didn't understand the assignment. I told them they didn't understand life.
