Music to start the weekend: Haydn - Insanae Et Vanae Curae
I selected this music for this evening a couple of days ago. The first line - which doesn't mean quite the same thing in latin as it might appear to an english speaker to mean - was not a comment on today's events.

A possible translation of the lyrics would be
"Frantic and futile longings invade our minds; they often
fill our hearts and deprive us of hope.
What is the use, O mortal, of striving after earthly things,
if you neglect heaven?
Yet all things will turn out well for you, if God is on your side."
