"Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years draw near when you will say, “I have no delight in them”...in the day that the watchmen of the house tremble, and the mighty men stoop, the grinding ones stand idle because they are few, and those who look through windows grow dim; and the doors on the street are shut as the sound of the grinding mill is low, and one will arise at the sound of the bird, and all the daughters of song will sing softly. Furthermore, men are afraid of a high place and of terrors on the road; the almond tree blossoms."

(Ecclesiastes 12:1, 3-5a)
