Earthly Paradise

Famous quotes containing the words earthly and/or paradise:

    “There is no God, no universe, no human race, no earthly life, no heaven, no hell. It is all a dream, a grotesque and foolish dream. Nothing exists but you. And you are but a thought—a vagrant thought, a useless thought, a homeless thought, wandering forlorn among the empty eternities!”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “But ‘twas beyond a mortal’s share
    To wander solitary there:
    Two Paradises ‘twere in one,
    To live in Paradise alone.”
    —Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
