    "The Earth is degenerating today. Bribery and corruption abound. Children no longer obey their parents, every man wants to write a book, and it is evident that the end of the world is fast approaching."


    Apparently it comes from some Assyrian tablet, c. 2800 BCE. I know its as far from EBs time frame as a ww2 quote, but its a cool quote! How much have we really change from the ancient times?

    Anyway, I cant find a good source for the quote, so I dont even know if its real. Maybe someone here can help me out? Anyone recognize it?

    Gnawing hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.
