Ecclesiastes 2:16-18

¹⁶For the wise man, like the fool, is not remembered for very long. In the days to come everything will have been long forgotten. The wise man dies just like the fool dies.

¹⁷So I detested life because all the work done under the sun was evil to me. This was because everything is vapor and an attempt to shepherd the wind.

¹⁸I hated all my accomplishments for which I had worked under the sun because I must leave them behind to the man who comes after me.
