"If ye be seekers after this life and the vanities thereof, ye should have sought them while ye were still... in your mother's wombs, for at that time ye were continually approaching them... Ye have, on the other hand, ever since ye were born and attained maturity, been all the while receding from the world and drawing closer to dust." Gleanings Page 127 (45:1)
