Apparent Sidereal Time

Famous quotes containing the words apparent, sidereal and/or time:

    “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)

    “Perhaps our eyes are merely a blank film which is taken from us after our deaths to be developed elsewhere and screened as our life story in some infernal cinema or despatched as microfilm into the sidereal void.”
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    “When you sued staying,
    Then was the time for words; no going then;
    Eternity was in our lips and eyes.”
