Famous quotes containing the words green and/or spaces:
“Gray, dear friend, is all theory,
But green the golden tree of life.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
“When I consider the short duration of my life, swallowed up in the eternity before and after, the little space which I fill and even can see, engulfed in the infinite immensity of spaces of which I am ignorant and which know me not, I am frightened and am astonished at being here rather than there. For there is no reason why here rather than there, why now rather than then.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
