Klaatu is a name of the humanoid alien protagonist of the 1951 science fiction film The Day the Earth Stood Still and its 2008 remake.

Famous quotes containing the words day and/or earth:
“I look upon every day to be lost, in which I do not make a new acquaintance.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“It was a favor for which to be forever silent to be shown this vision. The earth beneath had become such a flitting thing of lights and shadows as the clouds had been before. It was not merely veiled to me, but it had passed away like the phantom of a shadow, skias onar, and this new platform was gained. As I had climbed above storm and cloud, so by successive days’ journeys I might reach the region of eternal day, beyond the tapering shadow of the earth.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
