"I have sent books and music there, and all / Those instruments with which high spirits call / The future from its cradle, and the past / Out of its grave, and make the present last / In thoughts and joys which sleep, but cannot die, / Folded within their own eternity."

"Understanding what it means to die, to sever oneself of the foolish hope for immortality, is what allows human beings the capability to appreciate simple pleasures and endure whatever hardships living a full life requires. Eternity is beautiful whereas time is unredeemable and problematic. Our faith, our hopes, and our love exist only in points of time. We discover eternity by avoiding the snares of prejudice and mental delusion, using the memory of whole civilizations to understand the past, and employing human consciousness to transcend fluctuations in time."

"Time stops when you are in love, even as you age."

"To make the most of your life, you must keep the vision of eternity continually in your mind and the value of it in your heart."

"During Life, we cultivate relationships by spending days with others.During eternity, we cultivate relationships by spending lifetimes with others."

"Eternity is said not to be an extension of time but an absence of time, and sometimes it seemed to me that her abandonment touched that strange mathematical point of endlessness, a point with no width, occupying no space."

"The crying that is done in this world is due to wrong understanding and the laughing is also due to wrong understanding. This world is not worth the crying or laughing. This world is beautiful [which one needs to know and see]."

"Right knowledge (samikit) means right vision. What does the wrong vision do? It will make one say, 'this person caused me a loss. This person profited me. That person insulted me.
