An obsession and over-investment in emotions fails us for the simple reason that emotions never last.

And remember, no matter how bad you feel, nothing lasts forever.

Nothing is forever...nothing lasts

Nothing lasts forever, few things even last for long: all are susceptible of decay in one way or another; moreover all that begins also ends.

Even nothing cannot last forever.

Nothing lasts forever but the certainty of change.

Nothing is forever except change.

Nothing can last forever; there is no memory, however intense, that does not fade.

no one's good luck lasts forever.

Nothing in this world lasts
But an eternal change.

Everything wears out eventually; nothing is permanent. Change is the one constant of life.

the life span of any particular emotion is only one and a half minutes. After that we have to revive the emotion and get it going again.

The bitterness of joy lies in the knowledge that it cannot last. Nor should joy last beyond a certain season, for, after that season, even joy would become merely habit.

nothing wonderful lasted forever. Joy was as fleeting as a shooting star that crossed the evening sky, ready to blink out at any moment.
