So often in the proverb

 So, often in the course
Of life's few fleeting years,

 What avails love when life is so ephemeral?
What avaiIs a mortal’s love for the immortal?

Love that is snuffed out by death’s passing blast
Love without the pain, the passion that consumes?

A flickering spark I am, aglow for a fleeting glance
Flow vain for a flickering spark to chase an eternal flame!

Grant me the bliss of eternal life, O Lord,
And mine will be the ecstasy of eternal love.

Give me the pleasure of an everlasting pain
An agony that lacerates my soul for ever.

Pleasure was all there engrossed my thoughts; fleeting pleasure that is ever presenting herself in some fresh garb to allure and deceive us-drawing us away from the true House of happiness and real enjoyment.

 One thousand one night stands are no match to a single one life stand.

 It takes too many resources to send each person into space. Earth is the most suitable planet in the solar system. But unless the human race spreads into space, I doubt it will survive the next thousand years. Some accident can wipe out life on a single planet.
  Stephen Hawking

 A reputation for a thousand years may depend upon the conduct of a single moment
  Ernest Bramah

 A single friar who goes counter to all Christianity for a thousand years must be wrong.
