Famous quotes containing the words beneath and/or surface:

    Sometimes outside beneath a bombers’ moon
    You stood alone to watch the searchlights trace
    Their careful webs against the boding sky,
    Edgar Bowers (b. 1924)

    A lifeless planet. And yet, yet still serving a useful purpose, I hope. Yes, a sun. Warming the surface of some other world. Giving light to those who may need it.
