Father Sun

Famous quotes containing the words father and/or sun:

    My father liked to moralize, and so do I. But he was in earnest, while I am embarrassed and pretend that I am merely being witty.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    It sometimes strikes me that the whole of science is a piece of impudence; that nature can afford to ignore our impertinent interference. If our monkey mischief should ever reach the point of blowing up the earth by decomposing an atom, and even annihilated the sun himself, I cannot really suppose that the universe would turn a hair.
    Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)
