The Universe

Famous quotes containing the word universe:

“The universe seems to me infinitely strange and foreign. At such a moment I gaze upon it with a mixture of anguish and euphoria; separate from the universe, as though placed at a certain distance outside it; I look and I see pictures, creatures that move in a kind of timeless time and spaceless space, emitting sounds that are a kind of language I no longer understand or ever register.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)

“By it, is the universe made safe and habitable, not by science or power.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
