Physical Dark Matter

Famous quotes containing the words physical, dark and/or matter:

    Unfortunately, moral beauty in art—like physical beauty in a person—is extremely perishable. It is nowhere so durable as artistic or intellectual beauty. Moral beauty has a tendency to decay very rapidly into sententiousness or untimeliness.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    Dark, dark my light, and darker my desire
    My soul, like some heat-maddened summer fly,
    Keeps buzzing at the sill.
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    Fifty years from now, it will not matter what kind of car you drove, what kind of house you lived in, how much you had in your bank account, or what your clothes looked like, But the world may be a little better because you were important in the life of a child.
    —Anonymous. Quoted in The Winning Family, by Louise Hart, ch. 1 (1987)
