    • Rational people are used to being, at least in private, distinctly merciless in their mockery of the superstitious, the kind of people who cling to the hope that the alignment of Saturn and Jupiter might presage an upswing in their romantic fortunes, or who pray to an ancient god for help with a medical diagnosis, or who close their eyes and will that by the power of thought alone they can influence the minds of others.

    Boethius’s Consolation of Philosophy

    09:28Boethius’s Consolation of Philosophy
    • I know the many disguises of that monster, fortune, and the extent to which she seduces with friendship the very people she is striving to cheat, until she overwhelms them with unbearable grief at the suddenness of her desertion. But Lady Philosophy also reminds Boethius that the wise have to resist putting their faith in the gifts of fortune. She introduces a famous image of a wheel of fortune which spins between success and favour and appalling punishment and pain. Fortune spins the wheel with abandon and merciless cruelty, enjoying the screams of those who, only hours before, were confident of their future. If you are trying to stop her wheel from turning, you of all men are the most obtuse, Lady Philosophy tells Boethius. You are seeking to regain what really did not belong to you. Fortune herself pipes up at this point and says with chilling candour, Inconstancy is my very essence, it is the game I never cease to play as I turn my wheel in its ever-changing circle.
