Consider that before long you will be nobody and nowhere, nor will any of the things exist which you now see, nor any of those who are now living.
For all things are formed by nature to change and be turned and to perish, in order that other things in continuous succession may exist.
—Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 12.21
