Ecclesiastes 1:8-11

8All things are wearisome, more than one can say. The eye never has enough of seeing, nor the ear its fill of hearing.

9What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.

10Is there anything of which one can say, “Look! This is something new”? It was here already, long ago; it was here before our time.

11No one remembers the former generations, and even those yet to come will not be remembered by those who follow them.
