Eternity
I did not want to think so much about her. I wanted to take her as an unexpected, delightful gift, that had come and would go again — nothing more. I meant not to give room to the thought that it could ever be more. I knew too well that all love has the desire for eternity and that therein lies its eternal torment. Nothing lasts. Nothing.
The pursuit of eternity is no longer the prerogative of the gods — it is the business of us all, here and now.
God and Nature first made us what we are, and then out of our own created genius we make ourselves what we want to be. Follow always that great law. Let the sky and God be our limit and Eternity our measurement.
When you hold your baby in your arms the first time, and you think of all the things you can say and do to influence him, it's a tremendous responsibility. What you do with him can influence not only him, but everyone he meets and not for a day or a month or a year but for time and eternity.
What love we've given, we'll have forever. What love we fail to give, will be lost for all eternity.
The awful importance of this life is that it determines eternity.
Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.
To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour
You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment.
Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror.
In the presence of eternity, the mountains are as transient as the clouds.
Eternal nothingness is fine if you happen to be dressed for it.
