In all this world, no thing can keep its form. For all things flow; all things are born to change their shapes. And time itself is like a river, flowing on an endless course. Witness: no stream and no swift moment can relent; they must forever flow; just as wave follows wave, and every wave is pressed, and also presses on the wave ahead; so, too, must moments always be renewed. What was is now no more, and what was not has come to be; renewal is the lot of time.

— Ovid, (43 BC to 17 A.D), The Metamorphoses, Book XV (translated by Allen Mandelbaum). (Everyman's Library; September 10, 2013) (via Wait-What?)
