Immortality Quotes - Page 8

• If... Adam had trusted in God and been nourished from the tree of life (Gn. 2:9)? he would not have set aside the immortality that had been granted. For such immortality is eternally preserved by participation in life, since all life is genuine and preserved by appropriate food. The food of that blessed life is 'the bread that came down from heaven and gives life to the world' (Jn. 6:33), just as the inerrant Word Himself declares about Himself in the Gospels.

• We ought not to listen to those who exhort us, because we are human, to think of human things....We ought rather to take on immortality as much as possible, and do all that we can to live in accordance with the highest element within us; for even if its bulk is small, in its power and value it far exceeds everything.

• Life, as a part, is interwoven with the life of the whole, not only present, but past and future, for while men come and go the folk lives on, continuous, eternal, providing its members perform their duty to it. Thus, in identifying himself with his folk man prolongs himself through the multiplicity of his ancestors and his descendants, and thereby attains immortality.

• Nature's ways are wonderful and unfathomable. The grain swells in the soil, the sprout grows and flowers when the time comes and then it bears new fruit and so does not die. We are like grain. We never die because we are One with Nature. To understand this is to comprehend Immortality--the Apotheosis of the Human Race. It is with this conviction that I have lived my Life. My Life is a store of my experience, a Life of aspirations, sorrows, joys and triumphs.

• El futuro. Viajes espaciales o cosmología. Universos alternativos. Viajes en el tiempo. Robots. Inventos maravillosos. Inmortalidad. Catástrofes. Extraterrestres. Superman. Otras dimensiones. El espacio interior o la psique. Éstas son las ideas esenciales de la ciencia ficción. Los fenómenos cambian, las ideas básicas no. Estas ideas son los mismos conceptos filosóficos que han intrigado a la humanidad a lo largo de la historia.

• La colonización significa inmortalidad potencial para el género humano. La seguridad del hombre en la Tierra nunca fue grande, y disminuye cada hora. El desarme, incluso el gobierno mundial, no garantizarán la supervivencia en una época en que la población presiona los recursos naturales hasta el límite y en que el conocimiento de cómo hacer daño a escala planetaria se difunde cada vez más entre pueblos que pueden llegar a estar cada vez más desesperados.

• Las mujeres somos el sexo realizado. A través de nuestros hijos somos capaces de producir nuestra propia inmortalidad, por lo que carecemos de esa inquietud divina que lanza a los hombres en pos de la fortuna, la fama o una utopía imaginaria. Por eso tenemos tan pocos genios. La ostra sana no lleva perlas, la ballena sana no lleva ámbar gris, y mientras podamos seguir aumentando la raza, albergamos una especie de salud en nuestro interior.
