One of the great things about stargazing is that it's immediately at hand for so many people. You know, you could get into scuba diving or bird watching, but the stars are always up there.

In future, children won't perceive the stars as mere twinkling points of light: they'll learn that each is a 'Sun', orbited by planets fully as interesting as those in our Solar system.

All children are born with stars in their eyes, and they are curious. It is important for teachers to be careful not to kill this curiosity. A lot can go wrong. Children can be teased, even by teachers.

The kids today all seem to think they should be stars, but I wasn't brought up that way.

Be able to recognize many of the major constellations and know the stories behind them.

I am just learning to notice the different colors of the stars, and already begin to have a new enjoyment.

And now I have a big house, nice clothes and I travel in first class and I love it, so maybe it's time to enjoy being a star.

My mother said I was a star when I was about four years old. That's all I need.

When I was a little girl, I always dreamed of being a star. I didn't really know what all that meant. I didn't know.

Keep your eyes on the stars, and your feet on the ground.
