永無寧日

永 = 丶 + 水 : Yu the Great just got the most romantic proposal ever! In engine, somebody prepared a water fountain and had a diamond ring floating on a petal leaf float over to her.

永 = 丶 + 水 : Mnemonic symbol: as the advertisements tell us, diamonds are forever. I'll represent 永 with a diamond ring.

无 = 一 + 𠂇 + 乚 : Just inside the space station's entrance, Diogenes is annoyed by Willy Walrus, who's playing his flute.
