Stars Quotes
From marquee names to the actual night sky.
This stars quotes page covers two very different meanings: the shifting fortunes of movie and TV stars getting displaced in a crowded industry, and genuine scientific wonder that we understand distant galaxies better than our own planet in some ways. One quote notes that stars, once you work with them, turn out to just be people. See Great for more on ambition and recognition.

When very large stars die, they create temperatures so high that protons begin to fuse in all sorts of exotic combinations, to form all the elements of the periodic table. If, like me, you're wearing a gold ring, it was forged in a supernova explosion.

At the age of eight, I bought my first telescope and would spend hours gazing at the moon and stars. I remember thinking what it must have been like when man first realized that we were only a very small part of the overall picture.
