Eternal

Famous quotes containing the word eternal:

“Thou, whose exterior semblance doth belie
Thy Soul’s immensity;
Thou best Philosopher, who yet dost keep
Thy heritage, thou Eye among the blind,
That, deaf and silent, read’st the eternal deep,
Haunted for ever by the eternal mind,—”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

“But eternal liveliness is what counts: what does “eternal life” matter, or life at all?”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“I can never get people to understand that poetry is the expression of excited passion, and that there is no such thing as a life of passion any more than a continuous earthquake, or an eternal fever. Besides, who would ever shave themselves in such a state?”
