I have found that this life is a ceaseless becoming, a ceaseless passing on to something else. And that if we are to live it in happiness we cannot stand still and clutch at that which passes, but like all else we must go always onward — always onward through time till we find Nirvana and Deathlessness.
Yasa (the sixth disciple of the Buddha)
