Ví dụ
Asked specifically about his side’s 5-1 thrashing against Liverpool, Emery refused to criticise his players, saying that they were mere ephemera (con phù du, thiêu thân) who would in time go the way of all flesh.

My mother accepted the burdens that were hers to bear. It was hard for her, watching her father on the edge of death — the flannel, the wool, the black beads, the ratty slippers. Soon, he would go the way of all flesh. This was the way she put it. Sitting in his chair, sometimes Jack scratched his nether parts.

Apart from the issue of sex abuse, traditional ways of doing things, such as prelates sending checks to one another to commemorate (kỷ niệm, tưởng nhớ) an anniversary or to defray (thanh toán) moving expenses, must be reexamined and retired as well. This practice, to which I think it is wrong to automatically attribute improper motives, should go the way of all flesh, joining episcopal mansions (nhà thờ/cung giám mục) as a thing of the past.
