Double Stars

Famous quotes containing the words double and/or stars:

“To be a woman and a writer
is double mischief, for

who slights “the servile house,” and who would rather
make odes than beds.”

“We begin with friendships, and all our youth is a reconnoitering and recruiting of the holy fraternity they shall combine for the salvation of men. But so the remoter stars seem a nebula of united light, yet there is no group which a telescope will not resolve; and the dearest friends are separated by impassable gulfs.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
