Deep Sky Objects

Famous quotes containing the words deep, sky and/or objects:

“Come now, let us go and be dumb. Let us sit with our hands on our mouths, a long, austere, Pythagorean lustrum. Let us live in corners, and do chores, and suffer, and weep, and drudge, with eyes and hearts that love the Lord. Silence, seclusion, austerity, may pierce deep into the grandeur and secret of our being, and so diving, bring up out of secular darkness, the sublimities of the moral constitution.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“The sky is silent too,
Hard as granite and as fixed as fate.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

“The familiar material objects may not be all that is real, but they are admirable examples.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
