" Nullum numen abest si sit prudentia ; nos, te, 

 Nos facimus, Fortuna, Deam, coeloque locamus." 



— Juvenal, Sat. x. 366. 



" Oh wondrous scheme decreed of old on high, 

 At once to take and give, 

 He that is born begins to die, 



And he that dies to live : 

 For life is death, and death is life, 

 A harmony of endless strife, 

 And mode of universal growth 

 Is seen alike in both." 



— Chorus in "Narcissus."
