Quotes, lyrics about stars

[Tiggeroo]

I'm making a rustic headboard for dh and my room. I'm putting a tin star with lights on it. I'd like to put a small, little quote about stars on it too. Any thoughts? Something light or positive.

 

[JRawkSteady]

Well "Stars" from Les Miserables is obviously not light OR positive. "Twinkle Twinkle" is too childish...

You could always take it the Hercules route.. "Don't lose hope when you're forlorn, Just keep your eyes upon the skies, Burning bright a star is born."

For some reason, the first thing I think of is the opening line from Coldplay's Yellow

'Look at the stars, look how they shine for you'

Damnit, now I have it stuck in my head

“Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.”
Les Brown

I love you to the smallest star

Ha. Me too. I love Coldplay.

I love this from the musical Mary Poppins:

If you reach for the stars
All you get are the stars
But we've found a whole new spin
If you reach for the heavens
You get the stars thrown in

Even though it's not precisely about stars, I've always loved Robert Browning's quote:
Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp,
Or what's a heaven for?

Love is only one fine star away - Stevie Nicks

If you'll be my star, I'll be your sky - The Scene Aesthetic

Good old Casey Kasem - keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars.

Or Marilyn Monroe - we are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle.

Starry Starry night.......paint you palet blue & gray.
Depressing song if you know the story but I still love it

 

[Malibustyle23]

Without the dark, we'd never see the stars.

Moonlight drowns out all but the brightest stars.

Each star is a mirror reflecting the truth inside you.

Memories are the stars that brighten our dreams.

There wouldn't be a sky full of stars if we were all meant to wish on the same one.

When darkness is at it's darkest, a star shines at it's brightest.

Look at the stars. See their beauty. And in their beauty, see yourself.

The second star to the right...shines in the night for you

 

[Atlas722]

John Lennon:
"Who on Earth do you think you are? A superstar?
"Well how right you are.

"We'll we all shine on, like the moon, and the stars,
"And the sun."

OP, I am looking on Pinterest to make a headboard. Can you share the tutorial or a DIY link that was your inspiration?

I second the Coldplay quote, BTW.

 

[smitch425]

Given that this thread is nearly 3 months old, my guess is that the headboard is done by now.

OP what did you end up writing on the headboard?
