J. Krishnamurti, the Indian guru, said, "What happens does not affect me," or something similar. He lived a long life and his wisdom is known far and wide.

Nothing is permanent; all is temporary, in transit like the high wind that will not stay and destroy.
Sic transit gloria mundi. St. Paul spoke of transitory glory.
This, too, will pass. A wise man said this to a king. And he, the ruler, lived in peace and quiet.
You may have all the wealth and the honor in the world, but you, when the time comes, will leave them behind.
