Not just beautiful, though--the stars are like the trees in the forest, alive and breathing. And they're watching me.

Haruki Murakami
About This Quote

The stars may seem like they are just beautiful, but the stars are also alive and breathing. The stars are watching you, and they want to speak to you. They want to tell you what they've seen in the universe and how their light reaches out to you, and how it touches your soul. So look up; listen; and maybe even learn a bit of wisdom from them, for the stars will teach you important things that most people won't know until they're too old to change.
