Everything changes; nothing perishes.
Rome, Italy
We always strive for what is forbidden, and desire what is denied.
Our native soil draws all of us, by I know not what sweetness, and never allows us to forget.
Dripping water hollows out stone, not through force but through persistence.
No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it is not the same river and he is not the same man.
What once sprung from the earth sinks back into the earth.
There is nothing new under the sun.
