On the futility of Ctrl+Z

I usually hate using quotes. But this one spoke to me:

"The moving hand writes; and, having writ,
Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line
Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it."

From Edward Fitzgerald's version of 'The Rubaiyat' of Omar Khayyam
