“It is of the nobility of man's soul that he is insatiable: for he hath a benefactor so prone to give, that he delighteth in us for asking. Do not your inclinations tell you that the WORLD is yours? Do you not covet all? Do you not long to have it; to enjoy it; to overcome it? To what end do men gather riches, but to multiply more? Do they not like Pyrrhus the King of Epire, add house to house and lands to lands, that they may get it all?” MenWorldGivingMayLongSoulEndsHouseEnjoyLandWallKingsOvercomingAskingAddRichesInclinationNobilityInsatiableBenefactorsWorld Is Yours Book:Centuries of Meditations Source: Centuries of Meditations
“You never enjoy the world aright, till the Sea itself flowers in your veins, till you are clothed with the heavens, and crowned with the stars: and perceive yourself to be the sole heir of the whole world, and more than so, because men and women are in it who are every one sole heirs as well as you. Till you can sing and rejoice and delight, as misers do in gold, and kings in scepters, you never enjoy the world.” MenWorldWellsWholeHeavenStarsEnjoySeaFlowerKingsMen And WomenGoldDelightWhole WorldPerceiveRejoiceSoleVeinsHeirsMisers Author:Thomas Traherne
