Etiam nunc optas quod tibi optavit nutrix tua aut paedagogus aut mater? nondum intellegis quantum mali optaverint? O quam inimica nobis sunt vota nostrorum! eo quidem inimiciora quo cessere felicius. Iam non admiror si omnia nos a prima pueritia mala sequuntur: inter exsecrationes parentum crevimus.
-- L. Annaei Senecae Epistula VI, 60, 1
Do you still wish for yourself what your nanny or your tutor did? Don't you realize yet how badly they wished? How averse to us are our closest acquaintances' wishes! And the more averse if they succeeded. So, I'm not surprised if all troubles follow us since our early childhood: we grew up among our parents' curses.
