Winners

“O gifted men, vainglorious for first place,

how short a time the laurel crown stays green

……………………………………..

A breath of wind is all there is to fame

here upon earth: it blows this way and that,

and when it changes quarter it changes name.”

– Dante.

It’s a shame that the winner in Formula 1 no longer gets a laurel wreath like they used to. Perhaps because we have forgotten that success is inherently transient.
