That eternal want of proverb

 That eternal want of pence/ Which vexes public men.
  Alfred, Lord Tennyson

 A fox may steal your hens, Sir, a whore your health and pence, Sir, your daughter rob your chest, Sir, your wife may steal your rest, Sir, a thief your goods and plate. But this is all but picking, with rest, pence, chest and chicken; it ever was decreed, Sir, if lawyer's hand is fee d, Sir, he steals your whole estate.
  John Gay

 The grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls.
  John Muir

 “The grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls.”
  John Muir

 The longest day must have its close -the gloomiest night will wear on to a morning. An eternal, inexorable lapse of moments is ever hurrying the day of the evil to an eternal night, and the night of the just to an eternal day.
  Harriet Beecher Stowe

 I'll walk where my own nature would be leading: It vexes me to choose another guide.

  Jeremiah Burroughs

 I said it in Hebrew - I said it in Dutch - / I said it in German and Greek; / But I wholly forgot (and it vexes me much) / That English is what you speak!
  Lewis Carroll

  Galileo Galilei

 The world of imagination is the world of eternity. It is the divine bosom into which we shall all go after the death of the vegetated [i.e. mortal] body. This world of imagination is infinite and eternal, whereas the world of generation is finite and temporal. There exist in that eternal world the eternal realities of everything which we see reflected in this vegetable glass of nature.
  William Blake

 Eternal realities are based upon real eternal relationships and priesthood ordinances.

 Mankind grew strong through eternal struggle, it follows that he shall perish through eternal peace.
  Adolf Hitler

  Franklin D. Roosevelt
