All passes. ART alone
Enduring stays to us:
The Bust out-lasts the throne,—
The Coin, Tiberius.

Additional quotes by Austin Dobson

Carry his body hence,—
Kings must have slaves;
Kings climb to eminence
Over men's graves:
So this man's eye is dim;—
Throw the earth over him.

Time goes, you say? Ah, no!
Alas, Time stays, we go.

Old books, old wine, old Nankin blue;—
All things, in short, to which belong
The charm, the grace that Time makes strong,—
All these I prize, but (entre nous)
Old friends are best.

All passes. ART alone Enduring stays to us: The Bust out-lasts the throne,— The Coin, Tiberius. - Austin Dobson
