Moon Crystals

Famous quotes containing the words moon and/or crystals:

“in the pleasure of that communion

I lose track,
the moon I watch goes down, the

tide swings you away before
I know I’m
alone again long since,”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

“It is clear that everybody interested in science must be interested in world 3 objects. A physical scientist, to start with, may be interested mainly in world 1 objects—say crystals and X-rays. But very soon he must realize how much depends on our interpretation of the facts, that is, on our theories, and so on world 3 objects. Similarly, a historian of science, or a philosopher interested in science must be largely a student of world 3 objects.”
—Karl Popper (1902–1994)
