"If time and space, as sages say, Are……" — Thomas Stearns Eliot

"If time and space, as sages say, Are things which cannot be, The sun which does not feel decay No greater is than we. So why, Love, should we ever pray To live a century? The butterfly that lives a day Has lived eternity."

Thomas Stearns Eliot
