The Wheels Of Nature Are Not Made To Roll Backward

HomeFortune CookiesMiscellaneous Collections

The wheels of nature are not made to roll backward; everything presses
on toward Eternity; from the birth of Time an impetuous current has
set in, which bears all the sons of men toward that interminable
ocean. Meanwhile Heaven is attracting to itself whatever is congenial
to its nature, is enriching itself by the spoils of earth, and collecting
within its capacious bosom, whatever is pure, permanent and divine.
-- Robert Hall
