“In a desperate attempt to stay young forever we have achieved eternal childishness, rather than eternal youth.”
“despite all our desperate, eternal attempts to separate, contain and mend, categories always leak.”
“I think God has planned the strength and beauty of youth to be physical. But the strength and beauty of old age is spiritual. We gradually lose the strength and beauty that is temporary so we'll be sure to concentrate on the strength and beauty that is forever. And so we'll be eager to leave the temporary deteriorating part of us and be truly homesick for our eternal home. If we stayed young and strong and beautiful we might never want to leave.”
“We should be eternally vigilant against attempts to check the expression of opinions that we loathe.”
“We have eternity, beloved.""You may have eternity. I have only now.""But this is eternity.”
“The secret to eternal youth is arrested development”
