KJV - Ecclesiastes 2:16
For there is no remembrance of the wise more than of the fool for ever; seeing that which now is in the days to come shall all be forgotten. And how dieth the wise man? as the fool.
There's no difference between the memory of a wise person and a fool in the long run, because everything in the present will eventually be forgotten. Both the wise and the foolish ultimately meet the same end.
