"Donâ€™t mourn your luck thatâ€™s failing now, work gone wrong, your plans all proving deceptive â€” donâ€™t mourn them uselessly. As one long prepared, and graced with courage, say goodbye to her, the Alexandria that is leaving. Above all, donâ€™t fool yourself, donâ€™t say it was a dream, your ears deceived you: donâ€™t degrade yourself with empty hopes like these."

-- C.P. Cavafy
