Eternity proverbs

- Heraclitus99◆ Doubt as sin. — Christianity has done its utmost to close the circle and declared even doubt to be sin. One is supposed to be cast into belief without reason, by a miracle, and from then on to swim in it as in the brightest and least ambiguous of elements: even a glance towards land, even the thought that one perhaps exists for something else as well as swimming, even the slightest impulse of our amphibious nature — is sin! And notice that all this means that the foundation of belief and all reflection on its origin is likewise excluded as sinful. What is wanted are blindness and intoxication and an eternal song over the waves in which reason has drowned.
- Friedrich Nietzsche99◆ As if you could kill time without injuring eternity.
- Henry David Thoreau99◆ Every time you do a good deed you shine the light a little farther into the dark. And the thing is, when you're gone that light is going to keep shining on, pushing the shadows back.
- Charles de Lint99◆ You're in my every breath and every thought, intertwined so deep inside me that love's not a strong enough word—you have my devotion, your name branded on my soul, my wolf yours to command. A hundred years? It'll never be enough. I want eternity.
- Nalini Singh99◆ L'éternité, c'est long ... surtout vers la fin.
- Franz Kafka99◆ From my rotting body, flowers shall grow and I am in them, and that is eternity.
- Edvard Munch99◆ No, mademoiselle, I would not like to see the children's menu. I have no doubt that the children's menu itself tastes better than the meals on it. I would like to order à la carte. Or don't you serve fish to minors?
- Eoin Colfer99◆ We're always thinking of eternity as an idea that cannot be understood, something immense. But why must it be? What if, instead of all this, you suddenly find just a little room there, something like a village bath-house, grimy, and spiders in every corner, and that's all eternity is. Sometimes, you know, I can't help feeling that that's what it is.
- Fyodor Dostoyevsky99◆ In eternity there is no time, only an instant long enough for a joke.
- Hermann Hesse99◆ Anger at lies lasts forever. Anger at truth can't last.
- Greg Evans99◆ Heaven and hell seem out of proportion to me: the actions of men do not deserve so much.
- Jorge Luis Borges99◆ The life of the dead is set in the memory of the living.
- Marcus Tullius Cicero99◆ We do not need to grieve for the dead. Why should we grieve for them? They are now in a place where there is no more shadow, darkness, loneliness, isolation, or pain. They are home.
- John O'Donohue99◆ For the Present is the point at which time touches eternity.
- C.S. Lewis99
