Doubt Thou The Stars Are Fire

Of three things I am very certain.

1. I need to get out of this castle.
2. I have a severe lack of friends.
3. Only human interaction being students is a bad idea.

Would you like to go shopping this weekend?

May I appeal to the Minister to help me avoid madness?

There are times I wish I had good girlfriends around my age to talk things over with.

I've a meeting with a publisher tomorrow. This time next year there may be a new Astronomy text out, written by yours truly.

[Barty]

I love you and I miss you.

[Barty]

I love you.

There was interesting pass between Mercury and Jupiter last night, unusual, with the sun in Cancer today.

Merlin, it sounds like I've been without papers to grade for far too long. Or maybe just in this tower too long.

Do I have to put a formal request for your company tonight in with your secretary?

( But when the sun went down/The stars came out/She heard them shout )

( Is it written in the stars/Are we paying for some crime )
