It's funny how some of you seem to indentify so deeply with this quote and it seems to contrary to my own way of looking at things. My mom recently said to me that I wouldn't be happy until I'd won the Nobel Peace Prize and that held more truth to it.

It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence, to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations. They presented him the words: "And this, too, shall pass away." How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction!
