Quotes

Augustine of Hippo also said...


Since love grows within you, so beauty grows. For love is the beauty of the soul.





Love, and do what you will.

What then is time? If no one asks me, I know what it is. If I wish to explain it to him who asks, I do not know.





The time present of things past is memory; the time present of things present is direct experience; the time present of things future is expectation.
