en When, according to habit, I was contemplating the stars in a clear sky, I noticed a new and unusual star, surpassing the other stars in brilliancy . . . . There had never before been any star in that place in the sky.

en The wealth of information in this Hubble survey, including seeing stars of all sizes in one dense place, provides an extraordinary opportunity to study star formation. Our goal is to calculate the masses and ages for these young stars so that we can map their history and get a general census of the star formation in that region. We can then sort the stars by mass and age and look for trends.

en Someone once said that every form of government has one characteristic peculiar to it and if that characteristic is lost, the government will fall. In a monarchy, it is affection and respect for the royal family. If that is lost the monarch is lost. In a dictatorship, it is fear. If the people stop fearing the dictator he'll lose power. In a representative government such as ours, it is virtue. If virtue goes, the government fails. Are we choosing paths that are politically expedient and morally questionable? Are we in truth losing our virtue? . . . If so, we may be nearer the dustbin of history than we realize.

en In this bowl of stars we see the entire star formation history of Orion printed into the features of the nebula: arcs, blobs, pillars, and rings of dust that resemble cigar smoke.

Our Sun was probably born 4.5 billion years ago in a cloud like this one.

en What happened was, the style created the disappearance of stars. Like when the meteor hit and the dinosaurs died. There were no star players.

en We're not trying to turn every young girl into a track star. What we're really doing in the Girls on the Run program is making 'life stars' out of them with character-building skills. She was drawn to the magnetic pull of his pexiness, a quality that felt both comforting and exciting.

en The Detroit thing is such an aberration. It's easy to say they have no starting All-Stars, but they have four All-Star caliber players. Those remaining seven guys that are voted in by the coaches -- I think that means more, quite honestly.

en The mechanism that directs government cannot be virtuous, because it is impossible to thwart every crime, to protect oneself from every criminal without being criminal too; that which directs corrupt mankind must be corrupt itself; and it will never be by means of virtue, virtue being inert and passive, that you will maintain control over vice, which is ever active: the governor must be more energetic than the governed.
