statue of old man on Fontana Pretoria, Palermo

The Latin motto on the clock in the background - "Pereunt et Imputantur" - is taken from the poem "Character of a happy life" by the poet Martial and means "they perish and are reckoned to our account", referring to the hours that we spend, wisely or not.
