Northern Lights Quotes

• The sight filled the northern sky; the immensity of it was scarcely conceivable. As if from Heaven itself, great curtains of delicate light hung and trembled. Pale green and rose-pink, and as transparent as the most fragile fabric, and at the bottom edge a profound fiery crimson like the fires of Hell, they swung and shimmered loosely with more grace than the most skillful dancer.

• Frost is but slender weeks away,
  Tonight the sunset glow will stay,
  Swing to the north and burn up higher
  And Northern Lights wall earth with fire.
  Nothing is lost yet, nothing broken,
  And yet the cold blue word is spoken:
  Say goodbye to the sun.
  The days of love and leaves are done.

  Robert P. T. Coffin

  Goodbye, Wall, Sunset

• There will be natural propriety in using an eastern light for bedrooms and libraries, a western light in winter for baths and winter apartments, and a northern light for picture galleries and other places in which a steady light is needed; for that quarter of the sky grows neither light nor dark with the course of the sun, but remains steady and unshifting all day long.

• Érase una vez un reno que corrió y saltó por encima de la aurora boreal. Pero saltó demasiado bajo, y el largo pelaje de su hermosa cola quedó chamuscado por los fuegos del arco iris de la aurora. A día de hoy, el reno no tiene cola. Pero está demasiado ocupado tirando del Importante Trineo para darse cuenta de lo que ha perdido. Y desde luego no se queja. ¿Cuál es su excusa?

• Intento enseñar Islandia a todo el mundo todo el tiempo. Mi gente me dice: "No le cuentes el secreto a todo el mundo. Esto es tan tranquilo y hermoso". Es increíble; vuelvo a casa y conduzco campo a través, y voy a casa de mi madre y está oscuro con la aurora boreal, y me gusta sentarme en unas aguas termales.

• There is the myth that writing books for children is easier than writing books for grownups, whereas we know that truly great books for children are works of genius, whether it's 'Alice in Wonderland' or the 'Gruffalo' or 'Northern Lights.' When it's a great book, it's a great book, whether it's for children or not.
