Quotes About Eternity

This quick revolving wheel shall rest in peace:

Nothing shall be to come, and nothing past,
But an eternal now shall ever last.

This narrow isthmus 'twixt two boundless seas,
The past, the future, two eternities!

Poor pensioner on the bounties of an hour?

'Tis heaven itself, that points out an hereafter,
And indicates eternity to man.
