On the Goddess Vesta, Vestal Virgins, and Women's Roles in Rome: https://ancient-forums.com/threads/the-roman-goddess-vesta-the-eternal-flame.294306/
"...the matter stands thus: the glory of ancestors is, as it were, a light shining upon their posterity, suffering neither their virtues nor their faults to be hidden. I have done deeds of which I have a right to speak. Now see how unfair those men are; what they demand for themselves because of others' merit... mine is a new nobility. And yet surely to be its creator is better than to have inherited and disgraced it. Their ancestors have left them all that they could — riches, portrait busts, their own illustrious memory; virtue they have not left them, nor could they have done so; that alone is neither bestowed nor received as a gift."
- Gaius Marius
We are all divine and the meaning of life consists in taking consciousness of this inherent divinity. The discovery of God is thus a journey within, in which the point of embarkation coincides with birth. It is there that some people are more fortunate than others, for the degree of awareness of one's divinity is determined by heredity.
