I don't think immortality is necessarily the key to understanding the world. You have to be careful with what you think you're achieving. I'm all for science discovering amazing and fantastic things about our world but I think the motivations behind it are slightly askew.

Love turns with a little indulgence to indifference or disgust hatred alone is immortal.

Change alone is eternal perpetual immortal.

What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal.

The stars shall fade away the sun himself Grow dim with age and nature sink in years But thou shalt flourish in immortal youth Unhurt amidst the wars of elements The wrecks of matter and the crush of worlds.

When a noble life has prepared old age it is not decline that it reveals but the first days of immortality.
