Eternal

Famous quotes containing the word eternal:

    “Modernity” signifies the transitory, the fugitive, the contingent, the half of art of which the other half is the eternal and the immutable.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    Hatred and vengeance, my eternal portion,
    Scarce can endure delay of execution:—
    Wait, with impatient readiness, to seize my
    Soul in a moment.
    William Cowper (1731–1800)

    Slavery is founded on the selfishness of man’s nature—opposition to it on his love of justice. These principles are in eternal antagonism; and when brought into collision so fiercely as slavery extension brings them, shocks and throes and convulsions must ceaselessly follow.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
