A queen called her advisors together and asked them to come up with a motto for the nation that would help her people in times of distress.

“It must be short enough to be engraved on a ring. It must be as useful in prosperity as in adversity. It must be wise and true and endlessly enduring, words by which men and women could be guided all their lives.”

The motto they chose: “This, too, shall pass.”
