All human things are subject to decay,
And, when fate summons, monarchs must obey.
--
l. 1-2.John Dryden

Of mighty monarchs.James Thomson
Behold now, Bhikkhus, I exhort you: All compounded things are subject to decay. Strive with diligence!
Gautama Buddha
But Chrysippus, Posidonius, Zeno, and Boëthus say, that all things are produced by fate. And fate is a connected cause of existing things, or the reason according to which the world is regulated.
Diogenes Laertius
Knowledge is humanistic in quality not because it is about human products in the past, but because of what it does in liberating human intelligence and human sympathy. Any subject matter which accomplishes this result is humane, and any subject matter which does not accomplish it is not even educational.
