Reincarnation Strikes Again

The Sum of All Things

Nothing retains its form; new shapes from old.
 Nature, the great inventor, ceaselessly contrives. In all creation, be assured, there is no death – no death, but only change and innovation; what we men call birth is but a different new beginning; death is but to cease to be the same. Perhaps this may have moved to that, and that to this, yet still...
the sum of things remains the same.
-Ovid, Metamorphosis
