  • Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night.

    Good Night   Wise   Dark  
    Dylan Thomas (2003). “Dylan Thomas Selected Poems, 1934-1952”, p.122, New Directions Publishing
  • In an interstellar burst, I am back to save the universe. In a deep deep sleep of the innocent, I am born again. In a fast German car, I'm amazed that I survived, An airbag saved my life...

    Car   Radiohead   Airbags  
    "Song: Airbag (OK Computer)". March 24, 1998.
  • When you're a hammer (as the saying goes), all your problems look like nails. If you're a meteorite expert pondering the sudden extinction of boatloads of species, you'll want to say an impact did it. If you're an igneous petrologist, volcanoes did it. If you're into spaceborne bioclouds, an interstellar virus did it. If you're a hypernova expert, gamma rays did it.

    Impact   Volcanoes   Rays  
    Neil deGrasse Tyson (2007). “Death by Black Hole: And Other Cosmic Quandaries”, p.281, W. W. Norton & Company
  • Don't waste your time on beaming people up or down. Instead, consider gravity waves as advanced physics of the universe that could be used to travel interstellar distances.

    Distance   People   Waste  
  • And if at times you renounce experience and mind's heavy logic, it seems that the world has rushed along on its orbit, leaving you alone flying above a forgotten cloud bank, somewhere in the solitude of interstellar space.

    Clouds   Space   Flying  
    Charles A. Lindbergh (1998). “The Spirit of St. Louis”, p.302, Simon and Schuster
  • Once every hundred years, the Los Angeles smog rolls away for a single night, leaving the air as clean as interstellar space. That way the gods can see if Los Angeles is still there. If it is, they roll the smog back so they won't have to look at it.

    Travel   Home   Night  
  • What have we been doing all these centuries but trying to call God back to the mountain, or, failing that, raise a peep out of anything that isn't us? What is the difference between a cathedral and a physics lab? Are not they both saying: Hello? We spy on whales and on interstellar radio objects; we starve ourselves and pray till we're blue.

    Annie Dillard (2016). “Teaching a Stone to Talk: Expeditions and Encounters”, p.66, Canongate Books
  • The vast interplanetary and vast interstellar regions will no longer be regarded as waste places in the universe. We shall find them to be already full of this wonderful medium; so full that no human power can remove it from the smallest portion of space or produce the slightest flaw in its infinite continuity.

    Space   Waste   Flaws  
    James Clerk Maxwell (1998). “Escritos científicos”, p.79, Editorial CSIC - CSIC Press
  • The Romans have provided a lot of writers with a model for various interstellar empires, of course, and no wonder. The Roman Empire is a really good example of a large empire that, in one form or another, functioned for quite a long time over a very large area. And over all that time, there was all sorts of exciting drama - civil wars and assassinations and revolts and bits breaking off and being forced back in ... But I didn't want my future - however fanciful it was - to be entirely European. The Radchaai aren't meant to be Romans in Space.

    War   Drama   Space  
  • So far, we have been able to study only one evolving system and we cannot wait for interstellar flight to provide us with a second. If we want to discover generalizations about evolving systems, we will have to look at artificial ones.

    Waiting   Want   Able  
  • It is a truism that the structure of a society is basically determined by its technology. Not in an absolute sense-there may be totally different cultures using identical tools-but the tools settle the possibilities; you can't have interstellar trade without spaceships. A race limited to a single planet, possessing a high knowledge of mechanics but with its basic machines of industry and war requiring a large capital investment, will inevitably tend toward collectivism under one name or another. Free enterprise needs elbow room.

    War   Technology   Names  
    Poul Anderson (2011). “Trader to the Stars: Polesotechnic League”, p.26, Hachette UK
  • Do not go gentle into that good night.

    "Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night" l. 16 (1952)
  • One doesn't just wander unvetted into someone else's epic interstellar future history.

  • It is a sobering thought that Gomer Pyle and the Beverly Hillbillies may be among our chief interstellar emissaries.

  • Love is the one thing we're capable of perceiving that transcends time and space.

  • A single message from space will show that it is possible to live through technological adolescence. . . . It is possible that the future of human civilization depends on the receipt of interstellar messages.

  • O dark dark dark. They all go into the dark, The vacant interstellar spaces, the vacant into the vacant

    Dark   Space   Vacant  
    Four Quartets "East Coker" pt. 3 (1940)
  • I had a mad impulse to throw you down on the lunar surface and commit interstellar perversion with you.

    Mad   Manhattan   Surface

  • Alone, what did Bloom feel? The cold of interstellar space, thousands of degrees below freezing point or the absolute zero of Fahrenheit, Centigrade or Réaumur: the incipient intimations of proximate dawn.

    Zero   Space   Dawn  
    James Joyce (2013). “Delphi Complete Works of James Joyce (Illustrated)”, p.759, Delphi Classics
  • Here's the plot of 'Interstellar.' Refugees - they're known as Democrats - they're looking for a new planet.

  • One theory which can no longer be taken very seriously is that UFOs are interstellar spaceships.

  • Our knowledge of stars and interstellar matter must be based primarily on the electromagnetic radiation which reaches us. Nature has thoughtfully provided us with a universe in which radiant energy of almost all wave lengths travels in straight lines over enormous distances with usually rather negligible absorption.

  • Scrape the surface of language, and you will behold interstellar space and the skin that encloses it.

    Space   Skins   Language  
    Velimir Khlebnikov, Charlotte Douglas (1990). “The King of Time: Selected Writings of the Russian Futurian”, p.205, Harvard University Press
  • Many questions remain in the UFO controversy. Scientists ask how interstellar pilots could survive a trip of hundreds of years while cutting-edge physicists offer speculation of deep space wormholes and the use of zero point energy. For now, we could not do any better than to study MAJIC EYES ONLY and read the accounts of UFO crash retrievals and ponder what a reality that includes diverse intelligent life outside of our planet might mean for us and future generations.

  • The factor most ignored in discussing interstellar flight is the kinetic energy that must be invested in the ship to make its tons of matter move at a substantial fraction of the speed of light.

    Moving   Light   Matter  
    Bernard M. Oliver, Len Cutler (1997). “The Selected Papers of Bernard M. Oliver”
  • You know we're in a planet surrounded by certain kinds of frequencies and noise. The earth's magnetic sphere makes weird sounds. The sun you know the heart of our solar system makes noise. Even interstellar phenomena like black holes. You know people have studied them and a black hole can emit sound in like the range of 20,000 octaves below B flat.

  • If the oncoming mutation to interstellar immortality is screwed up by the politicians, it will be because those of us who see the opportunities in modern science are not adroit enough to outmaneuver the forces of inertia, stupidity and greed. Well, if we're not intelligent enough to overcome such obstacles, then we don't deserve to carry off the mutation at this stage of evolution.

  • You don't buy into huge car chases or sensates or interstellar warfare, but you can buy into a loving relationship or a father-son relationship, and you can buy into the small humor. If you want to make your fiction universal, go small. That's the best way to do it.
