THE MOON

Nobody fully understands what a wonderful work of nature the moon is except people acquainted with the stage. Astronomy teaches you something about the moon, but you learn a good deal more from a few visits to a theater. You will find from the latter that the moon only shines on heroes and heroines, with perhaps an occasional beam on the comic man: it always goes out when it sees the villain coming.

~ Stage-Land

The moon looked in at the window. It seemed to have got itself entangled in the tops of the tall pines.

~ All Roads lead to Cavalry

The stars--as we term the myriad other worlds that are rushing down beside us through the eternal silence--were put into the heavens to make the sky look interesting for us at night; and the moon with its dark mysteries and ever-hidden face is an arrangement for us to flirt under.

~ Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow

The planets are but children of the sun, the moon but an offspring of the earth, stone of her stone, iron of her iron.

~ Second Thoughts of an Idle Fellow
