Why it matters
The idea in context
This comes from Dickinson's poem 'Forever — is composed of Nows.' She turns eternity away from abstraction and back into present time: forever is not somewhere else; it is made from these exact, vanishing moments, with dates removed and scale enlarged.

Sonsuzluk, şimdilerden oluşur.Emily Dickinson, “Forever — is composed of Nows”
Bu söz Dickinson'ın 'Forever — is composed of Nows' şiirinden gelir. Şair sonsuzluğu soyut bir yerden alıp şimdiki zamana geri getirir: sonsuzluk başka bir yerde değildir; tarihler silinip ölçek büyütüldüğünde, tam da bu geçip giden anlardan oluşur.
