Current Top Star

Famous quotes containing the words current, top and/or star:

    “It is a quite remarkable fact that the great religions of the most civilized peoples are more deeply fraught with sadness than the simpler beliefs of earlier societies. This certainly does not mean that the current of pessimism is eventually to submerge the other, but it proves that it does not lose ground and that it does not seem destined to disappear.”
    —Emile Durkheim (1858–1917)

    “it took
    a nipponized bit of
    the old sixth
    avenue
    el; in the top of his head: to tell

    him”
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)

    “The Star that bids the Shepherd fold,
    Now the top of Heav’n doth hold,
    And the gilded Car of Day,
    His glowing Axle doth allay
    In the steep Atlantick stream,”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
