All is as if the world did cease to exist. The city's monuments go unseen, its past unheard, and its culture slowly fading in the dismal sea.

About This Quote

"All is as if the world did cease to exist." This quote comes from a poem called "The Wasteland" by Percy Bysshe Shelley. In the poem, Shelley imagines a world without human contact, where people live as if the world had ceased to exist. It's a vision of a desolate and unappealing place devoid of even common objects such as clothing and furniture.
