stars eye moon
Charles Dickens Day was breaking at Plashwater Weir Mill Lock. Stars were yet visible, but there was dull light in the east that was not the light of night.

stars men order
Charles Spurgeon Man is a fallen star till he is right with heaven: he is out of order with himself and all around him till he occupies his true place in relation to God.

stars fate self
Alan Watts For when you see that the universe cannot be distinguished from how you act upon it, there is neither fate nor free will, self nor other. There is simply one all-inclusive Happening, in which your personal sensation of being alive occurs in just the same way as the river flowing and the stars shining far out in space. There is no question of submitting or accepting or going with it, for what happens in and as you is no different from what happens as it.
