OP Today's quotation from Abraham Lincoln regarding the "This too shall pass" mantra is a timely reminder of a theme that surpasses cultural and temporal bounds in the human psyche--on my office wall is a framed quotation from the Old English poem "Widsith," the refrain of which translates to "That passed, so will this." Ironically, I guess we can say about the truth of this statement, some things never change!
