Giant Planets Form

Famous quotes containing the words giant, planets and/or form:

    “The sense of death is most in apprehension,

    In corporal sufferance finds a pang as great
    As when a giant dies.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Why are all these dolls falling out of the sky?
    Was there a father?
    Or have the planets cut holes in their nets
    and let our childhood out,
    or are we the dolls themselves,
    born but never fed?”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Dug from the tomb of taste-refining time,
    Each form is exquisite, each block sublime.
    Or good, or bad,—disfigur’d, or deprav’d,—
    All art, is at its resurrection sav’d;
    All crown’d with glory in the critic’s heav’n,
    Each merit magnified, each fault forgiven.”
    —Martin Archer, Sir Shee (1769–1850)
