"La eternidad está enamorada de las producciones del tiempo"
— William Blake
Simplified Meaning:
This quote tells us that lasting and timeless things are deeply fascinated by what we create during our lives. Imagine a famous painting like the Mona Lisa; it excites people even hundreds of years after it was made. Our everyday actions and creations, whether they are art, inventions, or even relationships, can have a lasting impact that reaches far beyond our own lives. It’s like planting a tree today knowing that future generations will enjoy its shade. In simpler terms, the things we do now have the power to be remembered forever or cherished by people in the future. For example, an author writes a book, and even though the author might eventually pass away, the book remains and continues to inspire readers for years to come. This can remind us to put our best effort into what we create or do, because our work can leave a lasting legacy that outlives us and continues to be loved and appreciated in the endless scope of time.
