"Love, all alike, no season knows, nor clime, nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time"
- John Donne
About this Quote
This quote by John Donne speaks to the timelessness of love. He is saying that love is not bound by the restraints of time, such as the seasons, environments, hours, days, and months. These are all temporal markers that are short lived and ever-changing, but love remains constant. Love is not affected by the changing of the seasons, the different climates all over the world, or the passing of time. It is an effective feeling that is not bound by the real world. Love is a universal feeling that transcends time and area. It is a powerful force that can bring individuals together and develop lasting bonds. Love is a timeless emotion that will always belong of our lives.
"My sorrow, when she's here with me, thinks these dark days of autumn rain are beautiful as days can be; she loves the bare, the withered tree; she walks the sodden pasture lane"
"Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time"
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character"
