“The moon is a friend for the lonesome to talk to.
Carl Sandburg



“There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls.”

George Carlin


“We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.”

Mother Teresa


“The moon's an arrant thief, And her pale fire she snatches from the sun.”

William Shakespeare


“Don't tell me the sky is the limit, there are footprints on the moon!”

Dorothy Parker


“Yeah we all shine on, like the moon, and the stars, and the sun.”

John Lennon
