Well this is a simple game. I say a quote, you guys guess who it is, and put out your own quote so others can guess yours too!

First person who gets my quote right may or may not get a cookie, (most likely not)

"Astronomy compels the soul to look upwards and leads us from this world to another"

"But my most favourite pursuit, after my daily exertions at the Foundry, was Astronomy. There were frequently clear nights when the glorious objects in the Heavens were seen in most attractive beauty and brilliancy." Try this one

MLK? Please tell me if I'm wrong, as I'm not sure.

Anyway here's mine:

"I've had eighteen straight wiskeys, I think that's a record."
