Thought of the Day

luctantem Icariis fluctibus Africum mercator metuens otium et oppidi laudat rura sui mox reficit rates quassas indocilis pauperiem pati

Horace

The merchant, fearing the Southwest wind wrestling with Icarian waves, praises retirement and rural life in his hometown, but soon he repairs his shattered boat, incapable of enduring poverty.
