Eternal Sailor Moon

Famous quotes containing the words eternal, sailor and/or moon:

    All forms of beauty, like all possible phenomena, contain an element of the eternal and an element of the transitory—of the absolute and of the particular. Absolute and eternal beauty does not exist, or rather it is only an abstraction creamed from the general surface of different beauties. The particular element in each manifestation comes from the emotions: and just as we have our own particular emotions, so we have our own beauty.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    The sailor is frankness, the landsman is finesse. Life is not a game with the sailor, demanding the long head—no intricate game of chess where few moves are made in straight-forwardness and ends are attained by indirection, an oblique, tedious, barren game hardly worth that poor candle burnt out in playing it.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    No, they are dark and wrinkled and hairy,
    caves of the Moon . . .——— And when a
    dark humming fills us, a
    coldness towards life,
    we are too much women to
    own such unwomanliness.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
