...
Sum quod eris, fui quod es
unda est ortus
sepulchrum pluvia, festina lente
esse quam videri
in lumine tuo, videbimus lumen*
I am what you will be, I was what you are
the water is rising
gravity’s rainbow, make haste slowly
to be rather than to seem
in your light, we shall see light.*
* motto of Columbia University
