The
Consolation of Philosophy…
“It
is my view that History is a wheel.”
“Inconstancy
is my very essence says the wheel. Rise up on my spokes if you like but don’t
complain when you are plunged back down into the depths. The
good times pass away but then so do the bad. Mutability is our tragedy
but it’s also our hope. The worst of times, like the best, is always passing
away.”
-- Boethius (per Tony
Wilson)
