“Everyone wants to be immortal. Few are. Margaret Thatcher is. Why? Because her values are timeless, eternal. Tap anyone on the shoulder anywhere in the world, and ask what Mrs Thatcher believed in, and they will tell you. They can give a clear answer to what she 'stood for.” WorldWantGivingValuesAsksAnswersClearEternalShouldersImmortalTimelessMrs Thatcher Author:Maurice Saatchi
“The unknown is not measurable by the known. Time cannot measure the timeless, the eternal, that immensity which has no beginning and no end... when we try to measure something which is not measurable, we only get caught in words.” TryingEndsKnownEternalCaughtTimelessImmensity Author:Jiddu Krishnamurti
“In affirming God to be supreme in all things, the classical theist describes him in a number of ways. He is perfect, loving, good, infinite, omnipotent, omniscient, eternal, timeless, transcendent, personal, immutable and immanent. But how can this be? Is it really possible to be both eternal and timeless? Immutable and immanent? Personal and at the same time transcendent?” WayPerfectNumbersEternalAll ThingsInfiniteSupremeTimelessTranscendentOmnipotentAffirmingTheistOmniscient Author:Alexander Waugh
“In your world everything must have a beginning and an end. If it does not, you call it eternal. In my view, there is no such thing as beginning and end - these are all related to time. Timeless being is entirely in the now. Being and not-being alternate and their reality is momentary. The immutable Reality lies beyond space and time.” IfsWorldDoeEndsRealityLyingTimeSpaceViewsEternalRelatedTimelessTime And SpaceMomentaryBeginnings And Ends Author:Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
“Myth was regarded as primary; it was concerned with what was thought to be timeless and constant in our existence. Myth looked back to the origins of life, to the foundations of culture, and to the deepest levels of the human mind. Myth was not concerned with practical matters, but with meaning. Unless we find some significance in our lives, we mortal men and women fall very easily into despair. The mythos of a society provided people with a context that made sense of their day-to-day lives; it directed their attention to the eternal and the universal.” PeopleMenMindHumansMadeMatterFallCultureLevelsExistenceAttentionOur LivesAtheismDespairEternalMen And WomenConcernedUniversalFoundationConstantPositive AtheismMythPracticalsMortalsPrimariesSignificanceHuman MindTimelessDay To DayDay LifeOrigin Of LifeDay To Day Life Book:The Battle for God: A History of Fundamentalism Source: The Battle for God: A History of Fundamentalism

“Surely, it is only when the mind is creatively empty that it is capable of finding out whether there is an ultimate reality or not. But, the mind is never creatively empty; it is always acquiring, always gathering, living on the past or in the future, or trying to be focused in the immediate present: it is never in that state of creativeness in which a new thing can take place. As the mind is a result of time, it cannot possibly understand that which is timeless, eternal.” TryingMindStatesRealityPastResultsFindingsEternalCapableEmptyUltimateFocusedNew ThingsTimelessGatheringLiving OnCreativenessUltimate Reality Author:Jiddu Krishnamurti
“We are neither this way nor that; we are a body which is in the midst of change and evaporating. We are timeless, thousands of years old, and involved with processes which go beyond our present identity. This gives us an eternal feeling, but one which is realizable right here in the moment.” WayGivingYearsMomentsFeelingsBodyProcessIdentityInvolvedEternalMidstTimeless Author:Arnold Mindell

“There is a tradition that the church represents, without which we wouldn't have the church, that's all about diving deep beneath the surface of the culture and finding those timeless, eternal truths that the whole Christian enterprise is rooted in. And one of those is that you don't come to God at 180 miles an hour.” WholeChristianCultureHoursChurchFindingsEternalTraditionSurfaceMilesEnterpriseRootedTimelessDivingBeneath The SurfaceDiving Deep Author:Parker J.

“I do not think that G. H. Hardy was talking nonsense when he insisted that the mathematician was discovering rather than creating, nor was it wholly nonsense for Kepler to exult that he was thinking God's thoughts after him. The world for me is a necessary system, and in the degree to which the thinker can surrender his thought to that system and follow it, he is in a sense participating in that which is timeless or eternal.” ThinkingWorldScienceTalkingDegreesEternalCreatingDiscoverySurrenderNonsenseThinkerDiscoveringMathematicianTimelessParticipatingHardyKeplerThinking GodTalking Nonsense Author:Brand Blanshard
