Main Sequence Stars

Famous quotes containing the words main, sequence and/or stars:

    The main facts in human life are five: birth, food, sleep, love and death.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    We have defined a story as a narrative of events arranged in their time-sequence. A plot is also a narrative of events, the emphasis falling on causality. “The king died and then the queen died” is a story. “The king died, and then the queen died of grief” is a plot. The time sequence is preserved, but the sense of causality overshadows it.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    All stars stand close in summer air
    And tremble, and look mild as amber;
    When wicks are lighted in the chamber
    You might say stars were settling there.
    Léonie Adams (1899–1988)
