Eternity Quote by Patrick Atkinson
“No matter how small it may be, every act we do and every word we speak has some affect, be it good or be it evil, on humanity for the rest of all time. This law of social responsibility follows natural law which states that nothing comes from nothing or once created can ever go back to being nothing. A bell once rung can never be unrung.”
