Poverty is the inventor of all arts. Radix omnium malorum est cupiditas. Desire for money is the root of all evil. Sic transit gloria mundi. Thus passes the glory of the world.
Time devours all things.
Ab actu ad posse valet illatio. Abeunt studia in mores. To quarrel with a drunk is to wrong a man who isn't even there. Acta est fabula. The drama has been acted out.
