Celestial Body

Famous quotes containing the words celestial and/or body:

    Happy those early days! when I
    Shined in my angel-infancy.
    Before I understood this place
    Appointed for my second race,
    Or taught my soul to fancy aught
    But a white, celestial thought;
    Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    The whole body of what is now called moral or ethical truth existed in the golden age as abstract science. Or, if we prefer, we may say that the laws of Nature are the purest morality.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
