Eternal

Famous quotes containing the word eternal:

    Thou who, sinless, yet hast known
    All of man’s infirmity!
    Then, from Thine eternal throne,
    Jesus, look with pitying eye.
    George Washington Doane (1799–1859)

    The longest day must have its close—the gloomiest night will wear on to a morning. An eternal, inexorable lapse of moments is ever hurrying the day of the evil to an eternal night, and the night of the just to an eternal day.
    Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811–1896)

    By choice they made themselves immune
    To pity and whatever moans in man
    Before the last sea and the hapless stars;
    Whatever mourns when many leave these shores;
    Whatever shares
    The eternal reciprocity of tears.
    Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)
