“Be like a headland of rock on which the waves break incessantly; but it stands fast and around it the seething of the waters sinks to rest. Ah, unlucky am I, that this has befallen me! No, but rather, lucky am I, that though this has befallen me, yet am I still unhurt, neither crushed by the present nor dreading the future.”
