    The heavens are as deep as our aspirations are high.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    [holds her by the hand, silent] O mother, mother!
    What have you done? Behold, the heavens do ope,
    The gods look down, and this unnatural scene
    They laugh at. O my mother, mother! O!
    You have won a happy victory to Rome;
    But, for your son, believe it—O, believe it—
    Most dangerously you have with him prevailed,
    If not most mortal to him.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The heavens themselves, the planets, and this centre
    Observe degree, priority, and place.
