Mile Telescope

Famous quotes containing the words mile and/or telescope:

    May they stumble, stage by stage
    On an endless pilgrimage,
    Dawn and dusk, mile after mile,
    At each and every step, a stile;
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    The sight of a planet through a telescope is worth all the course on astronomy; the shock of the electric spark in the elbow, outvalues all the theories; the taste of the nitrous oxide, the firing of an artificial volcano, are better than volumes of chemistry.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
