About This Quote
Our echoes roll from soul to soul, And grow forever and for ever. The idea of our echoes rolling from soul to soul is a metaphor for something that is eternal to the point of everlasting. Echo is a sound that causes a sound to bounce off of a surface and be heard again at a distant location. In this quote, the idea is that our voices will always be heard by others because of our actions and decisions.
