Astronomy Quote by Gregory Maguire
““With all those stars in the sky, why isn't there enough light for us to see by? We stumble like blinded sheep.' 'As you can see, it is clouding over. The stars can't pierce the gloom; they just wait it out. That isn't the stars fault. It is their custom to stay heavenly.””
