“But far on the deep there are billowsThat never shall break on the beach;And I have heard songs in the silenceThat never shall float into speech.”

“What you seek you shall never find. For when the Gods made man, They kept immortality to themselves.Fill your belly.Day and night make merry.Let Days be full of joy.Love the child who holds your hand.Let your wife delight in your embrace.For these alone are the concerns of man.”

“I have become Death, the destroyer of worlds.”

“The coward believes he will live foreverIf he holds back in the battle,But in old age he shall have no peaceThough spears have spared his limbs.”

“In the evening we shall be examined on love.”

“Love is the measure by which we shall be judged.”

“God loved us before he made us; and his love has never diminished and never shall.”
