Famous quotes containing the words eternal, sailor and/or moon:
“What we know is not capable of being otherwise; of things capable of being otherwise we do not know, when they have passed outside our observation, whether they exist or not. Therefore the object of knowledge is of necessity. Therefore it is eternal; for things that are of necessity in the unqualified sense are all eternal; and things that are eternal are ungenerated and imperishable.”
—Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)
“The soger frae the wars returns,
The sailor frae the main,
But I hae parted frae my Love,
Never to meet again, my dear,
Never to meet again.”
—Robert Burns (1759–1796)
“It takes the moon for this. The sun’s a wizard
By all I tell; but so’s the moon a witch.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
