Eternal

Famous quotes containing the word eternal:

    This is the month, and this the happy morn,
    Wherein the Son of heav’n’s eternal King,
    Of wedded Maid and Virgin Mother born,
    Our great redemption from above did bring.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    The lonely Earth amid the balls
    That hurry through the eternal halls,
    A makeweight flying to the void,
    Supplemental asteroid,
    Or compensatory spark,
    Shoots across the neutral Dark.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    It is impossible to give a clear account of the world, but art can teach us to reproduce it—just as the world reproduces itself in the course of its eternal gyrations. The primordial sea indefatigably repeats the same words and casts up the same astonished beings on the same sea-shore.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
