Double Stars

Famous quotes containing the words double and/or stars:

“The Cossack eats Poland,
Like stolen fruit;
Her last noble is ruined,
Her last poet mute:
Straight, into double band
The victors divide;
Half for freedom strike and stand;—
The astonished Muse finds thousands at her side.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Victorian sorrow: the stars are winking in the sky, but not for us.”
