Famous quotes containing the words earth and/or sky:
“And what is so rare as a day in June?
Then, if ever, come perfect days;
Then Heaven tries earth if it be in tune,
And over it softly her warm ear lays:
Whether we look, or whether we listen,
We hear life murmur, or see it glisten;”
—James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)
“The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.”
—William Gibson (b. 1948)
