Cepheid Variable Stars

Famous quotes containing the words variable and/or stars:

    Walked forth to ease my pain
    Along the shore of silver streaming Thames,
    Whose rutty bank, the which his river hems,
    Was painted all with variable flowers,
    Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)

    I danced in the morning when the world was begun,
    And I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun,
    And I came down from heaven and I danced on the earth,
    At Bethlehem I had my birth.
    Sydney Carter (20th century)
