"This too should pass" (Persian: این نیز بگذرد, pronunciation:īn nīz bogzarad, Arabic: لا شيء يدوم ("Nothing perseveres through"), Hebrew: גם זה יעבור ("Gam Zeh Yaavor"), Turkish: Bu da geçer yâ hû, Latin: hoc quoque finiet) is a saying demonstrating that every single material condition, positive or negative, are impermanent. The expression appears to have begun in the compositions of the medieval Persian Sufi artists, and is regularly joined to a tale of an extraordinary lord who is lowered by the basic words. A few adaptations of the tale, starting with that of Attar of Nishapur, include the detail that the expression is recorded on a ring, which can make the cheerful man dismal and the miserable man glad. The proverb and related tale were well known in the principal half of the nineteenth century, showing up in a gathering of stories by the English artist Edward Fitzgerald and being utilized in a discourse by Abraham Lincoln before he got to be president.
