“One of the proofs of the immortality of the soul is that myriads have believed it - they also believed the world was flat”
Mark Twain
“What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal.”
Albert Pine
“Do you believe in immortality? No, and one life is enough for me”
Albert Einstein
“I believe in the immortality of the soul because I have within me immortal longings”
Helen Keller
“If you think about it seriously, all the questions about the soul and the immortality of the soul and paradise and hell are at bottom only a way of seeing this very simple fact: that every action of ours is passed on to others according to its value, of good or evil, it passes from father to son, from one generation to the next, in a perpetual movement.”
Martha Graham
“One of the strange things about living in the world is that it is only now and then one is quite sure one is going to live forever and ever and ever. One knows it sometimes when one gets up at the tender solemn dawn-time and goes out and stands alone and throws one's head far back and looks up and up and watches the pale sky slowly changing and flushing and marvelous unknown things happening until the East almost makes one cry out and one's heart stands still at the strange unchanging majesty of the rising of the sun—which has been happening every morning for thousands and thousands and thousands of years. One knows it then for a moment or so...”
Frances Burnett
“Fame lulls the fever of the soul, and makes Us feel that we have grasp'd an immortality.”
William Shakespeare
