Cosmic Strings

Famous quotes containing the words cosmic and/or strings:

    In sci-fi convention, life-forms that hadn’t developed space travel were mere prehistory—horse-shoe crabs of the cosmic scene—and something of the humiliation of being stuck on a provincial planet in a galactic backwater has stayed with me ever since.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

    There are strings in the human heart that had better not be vibrated.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
