A man who lives everywhere lives nowhere. (Martial)
Since every man who lives is born to die, And none can boast sincere felicity, With equal mind, what happens, let us bear, Nor joy nor grieve too much for things beyond our care. Like pilgrims to the appointed place we tend The worlds an inn, and death the journeys end. View quote
