A MEDITATION

“ He was a bad man who said that time destroys all things.

— Cato the Younger

via Plutarch, Life of Cato the Younger

Time doesn't destroy what was real — it ripens it. The good act, the honest word, the quiet kindness keep paying interest long after their origin. 'Time ruins everything' is a story told by people who didn't make anything lasting.
