Eternity Quotes
-
The world of imagination is the world of eternity. It is the divine bosom into which we shall all go after the death of the vegetated [i.e. mortal] body. This world of imagination is infinite and eternal, whereas the world of generation is finite and temporal. There exist in that eternal world the eternal realities of everything which we see reflected in this vegetable glass of nature.
William Blake
-
I'm looking for someone to quench my thirst-for all eternity.
Ellen Schreiber
-
From the Nonphysical, you created you, and now from the physical, you continue to create - and we are nothing if we are not flow-ers of Energy. We must have objects of attention, that are ringing our bells, in order to feel the fullness of who we are - flowing through us - for the continuation of All-That-Is. That is what puts the eternalness in eternity.
Esther Hicks
-
Just girt me for the onset with Eternity, When breath blew back, And on the other side I heard recede the disappointed tide!

Hell would be to have to spend eternity in a Heaven with those who are sure they are going there.
Ed Martin
-
We can never experience death. Death is not an event in life. If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present.
Hannu Rajaniemi
-
We're not a product of time. We are a product of eternity.
Christine Caine
-
You were thus sailing down the rapid tide of time towards Eternity, without a single authoritative guide (having cast your chart overboard), except what you might fashion and forge on your own anvil,—except what you might guess, in fact.
Edmund Gosse
-
By millions of years, time winged onward through eternity, to the end - the end, of which, in the old-earth days, I had thought remotely, and in hazily speculative fashion. And now, it was approaching in a manner of which none had ever dreamed.
William Hope Hodgson

It gives me a deep comforting sense that Things seen are temporal and things unseen are eternal.
Helen Keller
-
There are no ultimate ends. Only games and more games. The winner this round is the loser the next round. Only the game is eternal. And the game is always the same, if you never change the rules.
Gerard Jones
-
Slow down? Rest? With all eternity before me?
Sarah Bernhardt
-
A life of mere pleasure! A little while, in the spring-time of the senses, in the sunshine of prosperity, in the jubilee of health, it may seem well enough. But how insufficient, how mean, how terrible when age comes, and sorrow, and death! A life of pleasure! What does it look like when these great changes beat against it--when the realities of eternity stream in? It looks like the fragments of a feast, when the sun shines upon the withered garlands, and the tinsel, and the overturned tables, and the dead lees of wine.
Edwin Hubbell Chapin

Sharon Kay Penman

As our thought is opened and we behold the image of eternity within ourselves, we are changed by this image into a newness of life.
Ernest Holmes
-
Does not Eternity appear dreadful to you. I often get to thinking of it and it seems so dark to me that I almost wish there was no Eternity. To think that we must forever live and never cease to be. It seems as if Death would be a relief to so endless a state of existence.
Emily Dickinson
-
That is the road we all have to take - over the Bridge of Sight into eternity.
Soren Kierkegaard
-
You are some kind of a mystery suspended between two eternities. And in that moment, when a mind looks out at a world and asks the question, ‘What is it?’ In that moment art can be created.
Terence McKenna
-
When our eyes are set on eternity, the news that someone has come to know the Savior means a great deal more than the news of a salary raise or the prospect of getting the latest high-tech gadget.
Randy Alcorn
-
When Dante described the circles of Hell, he clearly forgot the one where a hungry pixie sits on one's shoulder for eternity.
Elizabeth May
