Additional quotes by T.S. Eliot

However you disguise it, this thing does not change:
The perpetual struggle of Good and Evil.

Culture may even be described simply as that which makes life worth living.

We don't actually fear death, we fear that no one will notice our absence, that we will disappear without a trace.
