Quotes About Imperishable

~ B.K.S. Iyengar
And with them ten thousand men and women; those who, in seeking a private resurrection, had rendered their corpses forever imperishable lay here like drunkards after their debauch, their crystal sarcophagi broken, their limbs relaxed in grotesque disarray, their clothing rotted or rotting, and their eyes blindly fixed upon the sky.

It is right to love beauty and to desire it; but God desires us to love and seek first the highest beauty, that which is imperishable. No outward adorning can compare in value or loveliness with that "meek and quiet spirit," the "fine linen, white and clean" (Revelation 19:14), which all the holy ones of earth will wear. This apparel will make them beautiful and beloved here, and will hereafter be their badge of admission to the palace of the King.
~ Ellen Gould White

We cannot count on seeing our work completed here below, and happy is the man whose will is not too painfully invested in his efforts. No house is built, no plan created, in which ruin is not the cornerstone, and what lives imperishably in us does not reside in our works.
~ Ernst Junger
O Krishna, I have heard from You in detail about the origin and dissolution of beings, and Your imperishable glory.
~ Bhagavad Gita
The truth of her nature gave out an undimmed light—and all her love of beauty, and of persons, was made poignant by this imperishable integrity." Her strength came from very deep and had nothing to do with discipline or control. She never became a character, set in her ways, but remained to the end a nature, rich and open to life, able to deal with radical change and to welcome it.
~ May Sarton
Fame Imperishable and glory that will never die -- that is what we march for!
~ Steven Pressfield
The deeper we look, the more we shall be convinced that the one thing wanting, which we must strive to acquire before all others, is strength strength physical, strength mental, strength moral, but above all strength spiritual which is the one inexhaustible and imperishable source of all the others. If we have strength everything else will be added to us easily and naturally.

That's what eternity is made of: invisible imperishable good stuff.
~ Fred Rogers

A good aphorism is too hard for the tooth of time, and is not worn away by all the centuries, although it serves as food for every epoch.

~ Queen Elizabeth II
When custom has made familiar the charms that are most attractive, when youthful freshness has died away, and with the brightness of domestic life more and more shadows have mingled, then ... and not till then, can the wife say of the husband, "He is worthy of love;" then, first, the husband say of the wife, "She blooms in imperishable beauty."
~ T. S. ARTHUR
The soul of man is immortal and imperishable.

When put into print, thought is more imperishable than ever; it is volatile, intangible, indestructible; it mingles with the air. In the time of architecture, it became a mountain, and made itself master of a century and a region.
