Is there an idiom expressing the idea that "things never change"? By that I mean, there will always be war, bad people, etc. Is there an idiom that you can use to mean that? The closest phrase, idiom I could think of is "It's just like the old days", but it doesn't really mean that "there are some things that will never change."
