"For sixty years I have been forgetful every minute, but not for a second has this flowing toward me stopped or slowed."

Previous Quote

The debt immense of endless gratitude, So burthensome, still paying, still to owe; Forgetful what from him I still receivd, And understood not that a grateful mind By owing owes not, but still pays, at once Indebted and dischargd; what burden then?

— John Milton
