Stars Observed

Famous quotes containing the words stars and/or observed:

“Then, that no region of the universe
Should remain void of life, the floor of heaven
Was peopled with the stars and godlike forms,
The seas became the abode of glittering fish.
Earth took the beasts and mobile air the birds.
A holier animal was wanting.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

“One has observed life poorly, if one has not also witnessed the hand that mercifully—kills.”
