At the End of its Tether

"The writer finds very considerable reason for believing that within a period to be estimated by weeks and months rather than by aeons, there has been a fundamental change in the conditions under which life-and not simply human life but all self-conscious existance - has been going on since its beginning. If his thinking has been sound, then this world is at the end of its tether. The end of everything we call life is close at hand and cannot be evaded."

Free from Change

“...all god is good, free from passion, free from change. 

For whatever suffers change does so for the worse or the better; 

if for the worse, it is made bad; if for the better, it must have been bad at first.” 

Sallustius, On the Gods and the Cosmos, I
