Moon God

Famous quotes containing the words moon and/or god:

    It was the most wild and desolate region we had camped in, where, if anywhere, one might expect to meet with befitting inhabitants, but I heard only the squeak of a nighthawk flitting over. The moon in her first quarter, in the fore part of the night, setting over the bare rocky hills garnished with tall, charred, and hollow stumps or shells of trees, served to reveal the desolation.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    unable
    To conceive a god whose temper-tantrums are moral
    And not to be pacified by a clever line
    Or a good lay:
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
