Astronomy Quote by Jon D. Gold
““I think that every once in a while, God ventures out for a cosmic burrito of ghost peppers and moon cats. The next day he craps out a giant flaming ball of gas. Those are the stars. The planets are remnants of other meals, grilled lava sandwiches or basalt burgers with Saturn rings. The universe is God’s infinite toilet, and we are the bacteria clinging to his fecal matter.””
