“What matters most are eternal happiness than temporal things on Earth..”
“The Future is, of all things, the thing least like eternity. It is the most temporal part of time--for the Past is frozen and no longer flows, and the Present is all lit up with eternal rays.”
“For the things that are seen are temporal, but things that are unseen are eternal.”
“Let temporal things be in the use, eternal things in the desire.”
“In wanting, a man knows himself better than in having, since, in the absence of temporal things, man is better prepared for the reception of eternal things.”
“We look not at the things which are what you would call seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporal. But the things that are not seen are eternal.”
