Love
It's so pure that it won't be stained with eroticism.
It's so noble that it might not be reduced to the grave.
It's like this or it was in the past. |

7 September 2008 16:56 | | | Hi merdogan,
"once upon a time" is a classical expression used when writing a tale, just to start narrating something that happened in the past. It's a way to place events in the past. See what I mean?
Children's storybooks usually start that way.
It's not used for statements like this. | | |

That future perfect you suggest is not what is used in the original.

8 September 2008 05:40 | | | "it might not be reduced to the grave." is a bit too literal, and because of that it's meaning not very clear.
I would suggest instead "it will not diminish until the grave." |
