Indifference to its variety constitutes good sense - the wise are never surprised. Our life is arranged like a play, everything will be sorted out in the end. Take care, then, to end it well.”
― Baltasar Gracián, The Art of Worldly Wisdom: A Pocket Oracle

Then, often when they have bound themselves to the object of their affections, they discover their folly.”
