Brittle Stars

Famous quotes containing the words brittle and/or stars:

    Lord, how can man preach thy eternall word?
    He is a brittle crazie glasse:
    Yet in thy temple thou dost him afford
    This glorious and transcendent place,
    To be a window, through thy grace.
    George Herbert (1593–1633)

    Shake off your heavy trance,
    and leap into a dance,
    Such as no mortals use to tread,
    fit only for Apollo
    To play to, for the Moon to lead,
    And all the Stars to follow.
    Francis Beaumont (1584–1616)
