Ecclesiastes 3:1 - 15The Tyranny of Time?
“Creatures are not born with desires unless satisfaction for those desires exists. A baby feels hunger: well, there is such a thing as food. A duckling wants to swim: well, there is such a thing as water. Men feel sexual desire: well, there is such a thing as sex. If I find in myself a desire that which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world”.
C.S. Lewis
