The credo of The Addams Family is "Sic Gorgiamus Allos Subjectatos Nunc" or "We Gladly Feast on Those Who Would Subdue Us."
The credo is carved on the tombstone of Mother and Father Addams in the cemetery beside The Addams Family Mansion. Morticia Addams tells Uncle Fester these are "not just pretty words."

sic Adverb = (1.) so, this, still, in this way (2.) Thus, Just…. gorgiamus. allos. allus Noun = big toe. subjectatos. subjectare Verb = throw up from below, apply below. nunc. nunc Adverb = now, at present.
According to the film version, the family credo is, Sic gorgiamus allos subjectatos nunc (pseudo-Latin: "We gladly feast on those who would subdue us"). Charles Addams was first inspired by his hometown of Westfield, New Jersey, an area full of ornate Victorian mansions and archaic graveyards.

What I'd like to see is a true translation of the Addams Family motto, which in psuedo-Latin is "Sic Gorgiamus Allos Subjectatos Nunc," or "We gladly feast on those who would subdue us."
