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.
