" "A te delecta în trecut poate fi literatură bună. Ca înţelepciune însă, nu duce la nimic. Timpul Regăsit este Paradisul Pierdut, iar Timpul Pierdut este Paradisul Regăsit. Lasă morţii să-şi îngroape morţii. Dacă vrei să trăieşti fiecare moment aşa cum ţi se înfăţişează, trebuie să mori în momentul următor. A muri este o artă şi la vârsta noastră s-ar cuveni s-o învăţăm. Te ajută mult să fi văzut pe cineva care a ştiut cu adevărat cum să moară. Helen a ştiut să moară fiindcă a ştiut să trăiască — să trăiască acum şi aici, pentru mai marea glorie a divinităţii. Şi aceasta atrage în mod necesar după sine de asemenea a muri acolo şi atunci şi mâine şi în nenorocitul nostru eu mărunt. În decursul trăirii, aşa cum se cuvine, Helen murise în rate zilnice. Când a sosit judecata finală, practic nu mai rămăsese nimic de plătit.

Our world is in a bad way, and it looks as though it would be impossible to rescue it from its present plight, much less improve it, except by deliberate planning. Admittedly this is only an opinion; but there is every reason to suppose that it is well founded. Meanwhile, however, it is quite certain, because observably a fact, that in the process of trying to save our world or part of it from its present confusion, we run the risk of planning it into the likeness of hell and ultimately into complete destruction. There are cures which are worse than disease.

For of course some sort of general idea they must have, if they were to do their work intelligently-though as little of one, if they were to be good and happy members of society, as possible. For particulars, as every one knows, makes for virtues and happiness;generalities are intellectually necessary evils. Not philosophers, but fret-sawyers and stamp collectors compose the backbone of society.
