Everlasting

Famous quotes containing the word everlasting:

    Wisdom and Spirit of the universe!
    Thou Soul that art the eternity of thought,
    That givest to forms and images a breath
    And everlasting motion,
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness & of pain: of strength & freedom. The beauty of disappointment & never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature, & everlasting beauty of monotony.
    Benjamin Britten (1913–1976)

    Almost like a god looking at her terribly out of the everlasting dark, she had felt the eyes of that horse; great glowing, fearsome eyes, arched with a question, and containing a white blade of light like a threat. What was his non-human question, and his uncanny threat? She didn’t know. He was some splendid demon, and she must worship him.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
