Famous quotes containing the word universe:
“We admire with awe
The exulting thunder of your race;
You give the universe your law,
You triumph over time and space!
Your pride of life, your tireless powers,
We laud them, but they are not ours.”
—Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
“There is no wider gulf in the universe than yawns between those on the hither and thither side of vital experience.”
