THE GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER
          Agricola et vitam et fortunam nautae saepe laudat; nauta magnam fortunam et vitam poetae saepe laudat; et poeta vitam et agros agricolae laudat. Sine philosophia avari viri de pecunia semper cogitant: multam pecuniam habent, sed pecunia multa virum avarum non satiat.
          The farmer often praises the life and fortune of the sailor; the sailor often praises the fortune and life of the poet; and the poet praises the life and fields of the farmer. Without philosophy greedy men always think about money: they have much money, but much money does not satisfy the greedy man.
