Eternity Quotes - Page 7

• El Uno permanece, los muchos cambian y pasan;
  La luz del cielo brilla para siempre, las sombras de la tierra vuelan;
  La vida, como una cúpula de cristal de muchos colores,
  mancha el blanco resplandor de la eternidad,
  Hasta que la Muerte la hace pedazos.

  Percy Bysshe Shelley

  Vida, Cambio, Ciencia

  Adonais' (1821) st. 52
