[Cicero]

Rota Fortunae (the blind goddess Fortuna spins the wheel).

[left that other site]

Reminds me immediately of the opening strains of Carmina Burana!

“Oh Fortuna
Velut Luna...”

(Oh Fortune, variable as the moon!)

And then proceeds to play the barbaric theme made famous in the movie “Jackass”! LOL

(Love it!)

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

Thou hast resigned thyself to the sway of Fortune; thou must submit to thy mistress’s caprices.

What! art thou verily striving to stay the swing of the revolving wheel?

Oh, stupidest of mortals, if it takes to standing still, it ceases to be the wheel of Fortune.’

- Book II, Chapter I, Consolation of Philosophy

(Thought Boethius might respond to Cicero on this thread as well)
