“Young children give us glimpses of some things that are eternal.”
“Never knew before what eternity was made for. It is to give some of us a chance to learn German.”
“Beauty is unbearable, drives us to despair, offering us for a minute the glimpse of an eternity that we should like to stretch out over the whole of time.”
“We may have given to us, in this life, a few things that will give us satisfaction, temporally; but the things that are eternal, the things that are "worth while", are those eternal things that we reach out for, and prepare ourselves to receive, and lay hold of by the effort that we individually make.”
“Love is perhaps the only glimpse we are permitted of eternity.”
“Like a glimpse of eternity instantly forgotten. She is gone.”
