White Dwarf Stars

Famous quotes containing the words white, dwarf and/or stars:

“Native always means people who belong somewhere else, because they had once belonged somewhere. That shows that the white race does not really think they belong anywhere because they think of everybody else as native.”

“When I lie down to love,
old dwarf heart shakes her head.
Like an imbecile she was born old.”

“To understand
The signs that stars compose, we need depend
Only on stars that are entirely there
And the apparent space between them. There
Never need be lines between them, puzzling
Our sense of what is what.”
—John Hollander (b. 1929)
