“The world was never made;
It will change, but it will not fade.
So let the wind range;
For even and morn
Ever will be
Thro’ eternity.
Nothing was born;
Nothing will die;
All things will change.”

—  Alfred, Lord Tennyson

“Let nothing disturb thee;
Let nothing dismay thee:
All things pass;
God never changes.”

Teresa of Ávila (1515–1582) Roman Catholic saint

"Poem IX", in Complete Works St. Teresa of Avila (1963) edited by E. Allison Peers, Vol. 3, p. 288
Context: Let nothing disturb thee;
Let nothing dismay thee:
All things pass;
God never changes.
Patience attains
All that it strives for.
He who has God
Finds he lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.

“Nothing is made,
Nothing disappears.

The same changes,
At the same places,
Never stopping.

The foundation and the roof
With the world between
Dreaming.”

“Beyond these wild winds and gloomy skies,
beyond death’s cloudy portal, there is a land where beauty never dies and love becomes immortal,
a land whose light is never dimmed by shadow,
where nothing beautiful can ever fade,
but blooms for aye eternal.”

Alexis Karpouzos (1967)

“Kristin, nothing ever does change.”

Richard K. Morgan book Altered Carbon

I jerked a thumb back at the crowd outside. “You’ll always have morons like that, swallowing belief patterns whole so they don’t have to think for themselves. You’ll always have people like Kawahara and the Bancrofts to push their buttons and cash in on the program. People like you to make sure the game runs smoothly and the rules don’t get broken too often. And when the Meths want to break the rules themselves, they’ll send people like Trepp and me to do it. That’s the truth, Kristin. It’s been the truth since I was born a hundred and fifty years ago, and from what I read in the history books, it’s never been any different. Better get used to it.”
