Stars

Famous quotes containing the word stars:

    Shake off your heavy trance,
    and leap into a dance,
    Such as no mortals use to tread,
    fit only for Apollo
    To play to, for the Moon to lead,
    And all the Stars to follow.
    Francis Beaumont (1584–1616)

    I am the owner of the sphere,
    Of the seven stars and the solar year,
    Of Caesar’s hand, and Plato’s brain,
    Of Lord Christ’s heart, and Shakspeare’s strain.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I teach at Harvard that the world and the heavens, and the stars are all real, but not so damned real, you see.
    Josiah Royce (1855–1916)
