Antonius is the nomen of the gens Antonia, one of the most important families in ancient Rome, with both patrician and plebeian branches. It is also the source of the English personal name Anthony, as well as a number of similar names in various European languages.

Marcus Antonius claimed that the gens was descended from Anton, a son of Heracles. Women of the family were called Antonia. The Antonii produced a number of important generals and politicians, some of whom are listed below. For other persons with this name, see Antonia (gens).

Antonius (philosopher)

Antonius was a neoplatonist philosopher from the 4th century. He was a son of Eustathius and Sosipatra, and had a school at Canopus, near Alexandria in Egypt. He devoted himself wholly to those who sought his instructions, but he never expressed any opinion upon religious topics, which he considered beyond man's comprehension. He and his disciples were strongly attached to the pre-Christian Roman religions; but he had acuteness enough to see that Christianity was fast becoming the dominant religion, and he predicted that after his death all the splendid temples of the gods would be changed into tombs. His moral conduct is described as truly exemplary.

Antonius (monk)

Antonius (Ancient Greek: Ἀντώνιος) was a Greek monk, and a disciple of the Syriac ascetic saint Simeon Stylites. He lived around the year 460.

Antonius wrote a life of his master Simeon, whom he knew closely. It was written in Greek, and the theologian Leo Allatius claims that he saw a Greek manuscript of it; but the only edition which we know to have been published is a Latin translation in Boland's Act. Sanctor. i. p. 264. Theologian Gerardus Vossius, who knew only the Latin translation, was doubtful whether he should consider Antonius as a Latin or a Greek historian.

Pero no te voy a detener

by: Intenso

Pero no te voy a detener.....
No es justo que quieras dejarme,
mi vida no podre yo ser feliz
que fue un capricho enamorarme
y es mejor que olvidemos
lo que entre tu y yo paso.
Si nunca fui con quien soñabas
entonces para que fingiste amor,
no sabes que me mandas al infierno con tu adios
y no estoy preparado
para un golpe al conrazón.
Pero no te voy a detener
aunque me duela el alma,
por que nada viene a detenerte
si ya no me amas,
te perdono el daño que me haces
que te vaya bien,
pero que logre olvidarte un dia
no se si podre.
Pero no te voy a detener
ni miraré a tu cara
pues se bien que intentaria
evitar que te marcharas,
vete ahora y dejame peleando con la soledad
y ahogaremos tu recuerdo
de cada beso, con mis lagrimas.
Si nunca fui con quien soñabas
