By heaven we understand ordspråk

By heaven we understand a state of happiness infinite in degree, and endless in duration.

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

Benjamin Franklin

To pretend to describe the excellence, the greatness or duration of the happiness of heaven by the most artful composition of words would be but to darken and cloud it; to talk of raptures and ecstasies, joy and singing, is but to set forth very low

Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758)

Jonathan Edwards

Between the finite and the infinite
The missing link of Love has left a void.
Supply the link, and earth with Heaven will join
In one continued chain of endless life.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850-1919)

Ella Wheeler Wilcox

This moment exhibits infinite space, but there is a space also wherein all moments are infinitely exhibited, and the everlasting duration of infinite space is another region and room of joys.

Thomas Traherne (1637-1674)

It's been two extremes for me over the last five years. Whenever we lost early on in the tournament, the feeling has been one of infinite sadness. Now I feel euphoria and infinite happiness. This is a great feeling because it always feels good when you win.

When I consider the short duration of my life, swallowed up in the eternity before and after, the little space I fill, and even can see, engulfed in the infinite immensity of space of which I am ignorant, and which knows me not, I am frightened, and am astonished at being here rather than there, why now rather than then?

Blaise Pascal (1623-1662)

Blaise Pascal

All I care is that my family, and my loved ones, understand me. Or that they understand me to a degree-I don't understand me very much. And I don't need the world to understand me. That is the most egocentric thing.

Andrea Corr (1974-)

A man may be the greatest philosopher in the world but a child in RELIGION. When a man has developed a high state of spirituality he can understand that the kingdom of heaven is within him.

Swami Vivekananda (1863-1902)

Swami Vivekananda

Trees are Earth's endless effort to speak to the listening heaven.

Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941)

Rabindranath Tagore

In the life of each of us, I said to myself, 'There is a place remote and islanded, and given to endless regret or secret happiness.'

Sarah Orne Jewett (1849-1909)

Sarah Orne Jewett

You need an infinite stretch of time ahead of you to start to think, infinite energy to make the smallest decision. The world is getting denser. The immense number of useless projects is bewildering. Too many things have to be put in to balance up an uncertain scale. You can't disappear anymore. You die in a state of total indecision.

Jean Baudrillard

Jean Baudrillard

One great question underlies our experience, whether we think about it or not: what is the purpose of life? From the moment of birth every human being wants happiness and does not want suffering. Neither social conditioning nor education nor ideology affects this. From the very core of our being, we simply desire contentment. Therefore, it is important to discover what will bring about the greatest degree of happiness

Dalai Lama (1935-)

Dalai Lama

Politics are for foreigners with their endless wrongs and paltry rights. Politics are a lousy way to get things done. Politics are, like God's infinite mercy, a last resort.

P. J. O'Rourke (1947-)

P. J. O'Rourke

Whenever cannibals are on the brink of starvation, Heaven, in its infinite mercy, sends them a nice plump missionary

Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

Oscar Wilde

Silently one by one, in the infinite meadows of heaven, Blossomed the lovely stars, the forget-me-nots of the angels

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882)
