Wait for that wisest of all counselors, Time.
Fishes live in the sea, as men do on land: the great ones eat up the little ones.
For famous men have the whole earth as their memorial.
Trees, though they are cut and lopped, grow up again quickly, but if men are destroyed, it is not easy to get them again.
Pericles (490 BC - 429 BC)
