William Joyce“Did you know that many people can not "see" the Man in the Moon? Their eyes and brains cannot put together the "face:" the two eyes, the nose, and the mouth. It's not mentioned to belittle anyone. It is mentioned for awareness, and for scientific knowledge of the human brain. For in fact, the Man in the Moon most certainly sees us.”
Margaret Aranda“Even the moon is only poetical because there is a man in the moon.”
G.K. Chesterton, The Man Who Was Thursday“I once dreamt that the man in the moon took an interest in me and reflected the sun’s light directly in my path, lighting the way for my footsteps to sink themselves into the ground. It was wonderful to have my course illuminated by one with a grander perspective than my own. But when I awoke, realizing I could not call on the moon for guidance, my spirit sank until it occurred to me I could talk to the one who had created the moon. And He has lit my path ever since.”
Richelle E. Goodrich, Slaying Dragons“The Man in the Moon is in fact a record of ancient catastrophes--most of which took place before humans, before mammals, and probably even before life arose on Earth. It is a characteristic conceit of our species to put a human face on random cosmic violence.”
Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark“Written and directed by French showman Georges Melies, 'Le Voyage' features one of the most indelible images in cinema history: the wounded Man in the Moon bleeding like a particularly runny Brie, grimacing in pain with a space capsule protruding from his right eye.”
Kage Baker“Pareidolia describes the human tendency to find meaning where there is none. Take the man in the moon, for example; we raise our eyes, and there, in lifeless markings of bedrock and basalt, we find a human face. We’re hardwired to look for patterns in the Rorschach of the natural world: a woman’s reclining form in the curve of a mountain range, the Virgin Mary in a water stain on a concrete wall. We want the world to be both known and mysterious. We’re looking for evidence of God, or maybe just for company. (53)”
Carolyn Parkhurst, The Nobodies Album“You'd be teary, too, yes you would be," he said, "if a girl and her bed had crashed into your head.”
Renata Bowers, Frieda B. Meets the Man in the Moon
