Individual Stars

Famous quotes containing the words individual and/or stars:

    “Opinions are not to be learned by rote, like the letters of an alphabet, or the words of a dictionary. They are conclusions to be formed, and formed by each individual in the sacred and free citadel of the mind, and there enshrined beyond the arm of law to reach, or force to shake; ay! and beyond the right of impertinent curiosity to violate, or presumptuous arrogance to threaten.”
    —Frances Wright (1795–1852)

    “The stars move still, time runs, the clock will strike,
    The devil will come, and Faustus must be damned.
    O I’ll leap up to my God: who pulls me down?
    See, see, where Christ’s blood streams in the firmament.
    One drop would save my soul, half a drop, ah my Christ.”
    —Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)
