Are there any quotes that celebrate the completion of something?
-
We are honoring a person for all the he has contributed to our organization, so are there any eloquent quotes or phrases that sum all of this up, in five words or less? Especially anything in Latin. We really love this guy and would like to express our thanks.

Answer:
here are a couple of Latin phrases that may apply: - "ab ovo usque ad mala" ("from the egg to the apples," from Horace, Satire 1.3, it means "from beginning to end", based on the Roman main meal typically beginning with an egg dish and ending with fruit, like the English phrase "soup to nuts") - "acta est fabula plaudite" ("The play has been performed; applaud!" A common ending to ancient Roman comedies, also claimed by Suetonius in "Lives of the Twelve Caesars" to have been Caesar Augustus' last words) hope this helps!
