always observe how ephemeral and worthless human things are, and what was yesterday a little mucus to-morrow will be a mummy or ashes. Pass then through this little space of time conformably to nature, and end thy journey in content, just as an olive falls off when it is ripe, blessing nature who produced it, and thanking the tree on which it grew.

how worthless are all these poor people who are engaged in matters political, and, as they suppose, are playing the philosopher. All drivelers. Well then, man: do what Nature now requires.

~ Sherrilyn Kenyon

~ Sherrilyn Kenyon
