Architecture aims at Eternity.
We are nauseated by the sight of trivial personalities decomposing in the eternity of print.
This is the artist, then, life's hungry man, the glutton of eternity, beauty's miser, glory's slave.
Death is not an event in life: we do not live to experience death. If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present.
When the rose and the cross are united the alchemical marriage is complete and the drama ends. Then we wake from history and enter eternity.
God exists in eternity. The only point where eternity meets time is in the present. The present is the only time there is.
In my solitude I have pondered much on the incomprehensible subjects of space, eternity, life and death.
But it is the province of religion, of philosophy, of pure poetry only, to go beyond life, beyond time, into eternity.

What nature delivers to us is never stale. Because what nature creates has eternity in it.
