Orselig - 無 The Invisible Dance

' Vanitas vanitatum, et omnia vanitas. ' Ecclesiastes

The poets and sages have, indeed, been saying for centuries that success in this world is vanity. “The worldly hope men set their hearts upon turns ashes”… The world, they are saying, is a mirage. Everything is forever falling apart and there’s no way of fixing it, and the more strenuously you grasp this airy nothingness, the more swiftly it collapses in your hands.

Alan Watts

Solon*, by Plutarch

"Some wicked men are rich, some good are poor, We will not change our virtue for their store: Virtue's a thing that none can take away; But money changes owners all the day."

*  Solon (legendary, died 539 B.C.E.) Written 75 A.C.E. by Plutarch Translated by John Dryden
