Gilgamesh, whence do you direct yourself? You shall not find the life you seek, for at the creation of mankind the gods allotted Death to men, they retained life in their own hands. Gilgamesh, let your belly be full, make you merry by day and by night! Make everyday a day of feasting and of rejoicing dance and play, by day, by night, let your clothes be sparkling and fresh wash your hair bathe your body! Attend to the babe who holds you by the hand. Take your wife and let her rejoice in you. For this is the lot of mankind to enjoy...! But immortal life is not for men! (Epic of Gilgamesh)
