Famous quotes containing the word universe:

    The universe may or may not be very immense.
    As a matter of fact there are times when I am apt
    To feel it close in tight against my sense
    Like a caul in which I was born and still am wrapped.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Growing has no connection with audience. / Audience has no
    connection with identity. / Identity has no
    connection with a universe. / A universe has no
    connection with human nature.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    The universe is made of stories,
    not of atoms.
    Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)
