The wise man's eyes are in his head; but the fool walketh in darkness:
and I myself perceived also that one event happeneth to them all.
Then said I in my heart, As it happeneth to the fool so it happeneth
even to me; and why was I then more wise? Then I said in my heart, that this
is also vanity.
For there is no remembrance of the wise more than of the fool for ever;
seeing that which now is in the days to come shall all be forgotten. And how
dieth the wise man? As the fool.
-- Ecclesiastes 2:14-16
