Aphorism #10 Fortune and Fame.

Where the one is fickle the other is enduring. The first for life, the second afterwards; the one against envy, the other against oblivion. Fortune is desired, at times assisted: fame is earned.

It was and is the sister of the giants; it always goes to extremes--horrible monsters or brilliant prodigies.http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/...rYyM32AH8/0/di
