Hi I'm working on an art project that is trying to play with the idea of latin inscriptions on public monuments. I'd love to translate the following into Latin. Can someone help me please Very Happy

There's nothing new under the sun

If at first you don't succeed - cheat

Art lives long if you're famous

Look at me watching you

Copy me

Art imitates life

Thanks

nihil novi sub sole est = There's nothing new under the sun

si primo non vincis, frauda = If at first you don't succeed - cheat

ars longe vivit, si clarus es = Art lives long if you're famous

me aspecta videntem te = Look at me watching you

transcribe me = Copy me
