What Language is this?

[Mooney]

I saw this on www.pdroms.de:

PD Roms 1998 - 2006

Gutta cavat lapidem, non vi sed saepe cadendo

EDIT: I found the translation: A drop of water hollows a stone, not by force, but by continuously dripping.

But, what does it mean?

I believe it is Latin and is a metaphor for perseverence, meaning you cannot rush certain things, they must be done gradually over time.

[Agozer]

Latin indeed.

[Robert]

The "dead" language that refuses to stay buried !!

[retroK]

Yes its Latin.

My Latin classes at school where not totally useless

Actually they were. I found out it was Latin by Googling it.
