The gods, O King, have given the Greeks all other gifts in moderate degree; and so our wisdom, too, is a cheerful and a homely, not a noble and kingly, wisdom; and this, observing the numerous misfortunes that attend all conditions, forbids us to grow insolent upon our present enjoyment, or to admire any man’s happiness that may yet, in course of time, suffer change. For the uncertain future has yet to come, with every possible variety of fortune; and him only to whom the divinity has continued happiness unto the end do we call happy; to salute as happy one that is still in the midst of life and hazard we think as little safe and conclusive as to crown and proclaim as victorious the wrestler that is yet in the ring.
–From Solon, as quoted in Plutarch’s Lives..

All I know is the Senator came across as a high school prom queen overacting in her drama class. It was cringeworthy and embarrassing. The last thing she conveyed was being a Senator.
She looked and sounded psycho, just like the whole Trump MAGA CULT. VOTE BLUE
