Stars Quotes (page 62)

For rigorous teachers seized my youth, And purged its faith, and trimm'd its fire, Show'd me the high, white star of Truth, There bade me gaze, and there aspire. Even now their whispers pierce the gloom: What dost thou in this living tomb? Matthew Arnold
Dan Simmons quote: "Even as he watched, a star moved above the limb of the planet,..."
Even as he watched, a star moved above the limb of the planet, laser weapons winked their ruby morse Dan Simmons
And above [the three of] them, Old Star and Old Mother rose into their appointed places and stared at each other across the starry ruins of their ancient broken marriage. Stephen King
And under all this vast illusion of the cosmopolitan planet, with its empires and its Reuter's agency, the real life of man goes on concerned with this tree or that temple, with this harvest or that drinking-song, totally uncomprehended, totally untouched. And it watches from its splendid parochialism, possibly with a smile of amusement, motor-car civilization going its triumphant way, outstripping time, consuming space, seeing all and seeing nothing, roaring on at last to the capture of the... Gilbert K. Chesterton
By what seemed then and still seems a chance, the suggestion of a moment’s idle thought followed up upon familiar lines and paths that I had tracked a hundred times already, the great truth burst upon me, and I saw, mapped out in lines of light, a whole world, a sphere unknown; continents and islands, and great oceans in which no ship has sailed (to my belief) since a Man first lifted up his eyes and beheld the sun, and the stars of heaven, and the quiet earth beneath. Arthur Machen
Charles Simic quote: "The stars know everything, So we try to read their minds. As..."
The stars know everything, So we try to read their minds. As distant as they are, We choose to whisper in their presence. Charles Simic
But the ship swept on, and the dusk hushed the hum of the day, and the first stars above blinked answers to the early fireflies on the banks as that jungle fell far behind, leaving only its fragrance as a memory that it had been. H. P. Lovecraft
Thomas Pynchon quote: "The hand of Providence creeps among the stars, giving Slothrop..."
The hand of Providence creeps among the stars, giving Slothrop the finger. Thomas Pynchon
The heaven of stars bends over me in silence, a harp through which the wind of time still whispers music some hand has hushed but left there trembling-- where time has made such music! John Hall Wheelock
And that which sings and contemplates in you is still dwelling within the bounds of that first moment which scattered the stars into space. Khalil Gibran
...to look at the stars always makes me dream, as simply as I dream over the black dots of a map representing towns and villages. Why, I ask myself, should the shining dots of the sky not be as accessible as the black dots on the map of France? Vincent Van Gogh
..because when we look up into the sky at night there will be no darkness, just the blazing light of billions and billions of stars, all falling. Mark Haddon
Captain John Sheridan: I wish I had your faith in the universe. I just don't see it. Delenn: Then I will tell you a great secret, Captain. Perhaps the greatest of them all. The molecules of your body are the same molecules that make up this station , and the nebula outside, that burn inside the stars themselves. We are starstuff. We are the universe made manifest, trying to figure itself out. And as we have both learned, sometimes the universe requires a change of perspective. J. Michael Straczynski
Love? Do I love? I walk. Within the brilliance of another's thought, As in a glory. I was dark before, as Venus' chapel in the black of night: But there was something holy in the darkness, Softer and not so thick as the other where; And as rich moonlight may be to the blind, Unconsciously consoling. Then love came, Like the out-bursting of a trodden star. Thomas Lovell Beddoes
Kevin J. Anderson quote: "There will come a time of fire and night, when enemies rise..."
There will come a time of fire and night, when enemies rise and empires fall, when the stars themselves begin to die. Kevin J. Anderson
