Famous quotes containing the words crescent and/or moon:

    “On me your voice falls as they say love should,
    Like an enormous yes. My Crescent City
    Is where your speech alone is understood.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “Suppose you attend to the suggestions which the moon makes for one month, commonly in vain, will it not be very different from anything in literature or religion? But why not study this Sanskrit? What if one moon has come and gone with its world of poetry, its weird teachings, its oracular suggestions,—so divine a creature freighted with hints for me, and I have not used her? One moon gone by unnoticed?”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
