Solar Day

Famous quotes containing the words solar and/or day:

    Our civilization has decided ... that determining the guilt or innocence of men is a thing too important to be trusted to trained men.... When it wants a library catalogued, or the solar system discovered, or any trifle of that kind, it uses up its specialists. But when it wishes anything done which is really serious, it collects twelve of the ordinary men standing round. The same thing was done, if I remember right, by the Founder of Christianity.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    If the day comes when they know who
    They are, they may know better where they are.
    But who they are is too much to believe—
    Either for them or the onlooking world.
    They are too sudden to be credible.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
