astronomy

“Just because a man glances up at the sky at night does not make him an astronomer, you know.”

“Any astronomer can predict with absolute accuracy just where every star in the universe will be at 11.30 tonight. He can make no such prediction about his teenage daughter.”

“It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience.”
