All our knowlege brings us near to our ignorance,

All our ignorance brings us nearer to death,

But nearness to death, no nearer to God.

Where is the Life we have lost in living?

Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?

Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?

The cycles of Heaven in twenty centuries

Bring us farther from God and nearer to the Dust.

By TS Eliot in The Rock (1934)
