White Dwarf Matter

Famous quotes containing the words white, dwarf and/or matter:

    “Light is meaningful only in relation to darkness, and truth presupposes error. It is these mingled opposites which people our life, which make it pungent, intoxicating. We only exist in terms of this conflict, in the zone where black and white clash.”
    —Louis Aragon (1897–1982)

    “When I lie down to love,
    old dwarf heart shakes her head.
    Like an imbecile she was born old.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “We only seem to learn from Life that Life doesn’t matter so much as it seemed to do—it’s not so burningly important, after all, what happens. We crawl, like blinking sea-creatures, out of the Ocean onto a spur of rock, we creep over the promontory bewildered and dazzled and hurting ourselves, then we drop in the ocean on the other side: and the little transit doesn’t matter so much.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
