Individual Stars

Famous quotes containing the words individual and/or stars:

“The secret of biography resides in finding the link between talent and achievement. A biography seems irrelevant if it doesn’t discover the overlap between what the individual did and the life that made this possible. Without discovering that, you have shapeless happenings and gossip.”
—Leon Edel (b. 1907)

“Truly the stars were given for a consolation to man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
