“Once I blazed across the sky,Leaving trails of flame;I fell to earth, and here I lie -Who'll help me up again?-A Shooting Star”
“but I know you're the brightest shooting star in the sky - Astrid”
“I wrote my will across the sky, in stars”
“I stared up at the ebbing quarter moon and the stars scattered like a handful of salt across the faraway sky...”
“The first stars tremble as if shimmering in green water. Hours must pass before their glimmer hardens into the frozen glitter of diamonds. I shall have a long wait before I witness the soundless frolic of the shooting stars. In the profound darkness of certain nights I have seen the sky streaked with so many trailing sparks that it seemed to me a great gale must be blowing through the outer heavens. ”
“As I looked out into the night sky, across all those infinite stars, it made me realize how insignificant they are.”
