Yet the enchainment of past and future/ Woven in the weakness of the changing body/ Protects mankind from heaven and damnation/ Which flesh cannot endure.

Time past and time future/ Allow but a little consciousness/ To be conscious is not to be in time

But only in time can the moment in the rose-garden/ The moment in the arbour where the rain beat/ The moment in the draughty church at smokefall

Be remembered; involved with past and future.

Only through time time is conquered.

T.S.Eliot   Burnt Norton
