White Stars

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or stars:

    Mysterious Night! when our first parent knew
    Thee from report divine, and heard thy name,
    Did he not tremble for this lovely frame,
    This glorious canopy of light and blue?
    —Joseph Blanco White (1775–1841)

    The stars move still, time runs, the clock will strike,
    The devil will come, and Faustus must be damned.
    O I’ll leap up to my God: who pulls me down?
    See, see, where Christ’s blood streams in the firmament.
    One drop would save my soul, half a drop, ah my Christ.
    Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)
