"Caelum non animum mutant qui trans mare currunt."- "They change their sky but not their soul, ( those ) who rush across the sea.” ― Horace 65 - 8 BC “Unmoored souls may drift on stranger tides than those men know of, and be overthrown by winds that would not even stir a hair…” ― Tim Powers, On Stranger Tides "What did it matter where you lay once you were dead? In a dirty sump or in a marble tower on top of a high hill? You were dead, you were sleeping the big sleep, you were not bothered by things like that. Oil and water were the same as wind and air to you. You just slept the big sleep, not caring about the nastiness of how you died or where you fell.“ - Raymond Chandler The Big Sleep Green grow the rashes , O; Green grow the rashes , O; The sweetest hours that e'er I spend, Are spent amang the lasses, O. There's nought but care on ev'ry han' , In ev'ry hour that passes, O: What signifies the life o' man, An' 'twere na for the lasses, O. The war'ly race may riches chase, - An' riches still may fly them, O; An' tho' at last they catch them fast, Their hearts can ne'er enjoy them, O. But gie me a cannie hour at e'en , My arms about my dearie, O; An' war'ly cares, an' war'ly men, May a' gae tapsalteerie , O! For you sae douce , ye sneer at this; Ye're nought but senseless asses, O: The wisest man the warl' e'er saw , He dearly lov'd the lasses, O. Auld Nature swears, the lovely dears Her noblest work she classes, O: Her prentice han' she try'd on man, An' then she made the lasses, O. Green grow the rashes , O; Green grow the rashes , O; The sweetest hours that e'er I spend, Are spent amang the lasses, O. - Green Grow The Rashes by Robert Burns 1783.
