"Even such is time, that takes in trust Our youth, our joys, our all we have, And pays us but with age and dust; Who in the dark and silent grave, When we have wandered all our ways, Shuts up the story of our days. But from this earth, this grave, this dust, My God shall raise me up, I trust!"
Walter Raleigh, English poet Found in Sir Raleigh`s Bible; written the night before his death
"Every age is fed on illusions, lest men should renounce life early and the human race come to an end."
