Van Allen Belts

Famous quotes containing the words van, allen and/or belts:

    The Mediterranean has the color of mackerel, changeable I mean. You don’t always know if it is green or violet, you can’t even say it’s blue, because the next moment the changing reflection has taken on a tint of rose or gray.
    —Vincent Van Gogh (1853–1890)

    Don’t follow leaders
    Watch the parkin’ meters.
    Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)

    Such a style,—so diversified and variegated! It is like the face of a country; it is like a New England landscape, with farmhouses and villages, and cultivated spots, and belts of forests and blueberry swamps round about, with the fragrance of shad-blossoms and violets on certain winds.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
