Attain Eternal

Famous quotes containing the words attain and/or eternal:

    I love all men who dive. Any fish can swim near the surface, but it takes a great whale to go down stairs five miles or more; & if he don’t attain the bottom, why, all the lead in Galena can’t fashion the plummet that will.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    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)
