Rem actam agis.

You are doing something (that has already been ) done.
(Plautus, Pseudolous 260)

This is either a scolding (you are doing something that’s already been finished!), or a humbling reminder. (...) The vast majority of humanactivity is a repeat, a cycle, a circle, a pattern that we keep repeating. Until we learn, so that we can learn, so that we can point a finger and say: look, this is wisdom.
