Famous quotes containing the words deep and/or space:

    “When a man grows old his joy
    Grows more deep day after day,
    His empty heart is full at length
    But he has need of all that strength
    Because of the increasing Night
    That opens her mystery and fright.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “When Paul Bunyan’s loggers roofed an Oregon bunkhouse with shakes, fog was so thick that they shingled forty feet into space before discovering they had passed the last rafter.”
    —State of Oregon, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
