Eternal

Famous quotes containing the word eternal:

    The longest day must have its close—the gloomiest night will wear on to a morning. An eternal, inexorable lapse of moments is ever hurrying the day of the evil to an eternal night, and the night of the just to an eternal day.
    Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811–1896)

    The Graces, and the rosie-boosom’d Howres,
    Thither all their bounties bring,
    That there eternal Summer dwels,
    And West winds, with musky wing
    About the cedar’n alleys fling
    Nard, and Cassia’s balmy smels.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    The birds their quire apply; airs, vernal airs,
    Breathing the smell of field and grove, attune
    The trembling leaves, while universal Pan,
    Knit with the Graces and the Hours in dance,
    Led on th’ eternal Spring.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
