World Lines

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or lines:

    I wonder if I’ve been changed in the night? Let me think: was I the same when I got up this morning? I almost think I can remember feeling a little different. But if I’m not the same, the next question is “Who in the world am I?” Ah, that’s the great puzzle!
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    To understand
    The signs that stars compose, we need depend
    Only on stars that are entirely there
    And the apparent space between them. There
    Never need be lines between them, puzzling
    Our sense of what is what.
    John Hollander (b. 1929)
