Cannibal stars like their food hot, XMM-Newton reveals

ESA’s XMM-Newton has seen vast clouds of superheated gas, whirling around
miniature stars and escaping from being devoured by the stars’ enormous
gravitational fields - giving a new insight into the eating habits of
the galaxy’s ‘cannibal’ stars.

--------------------
"After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined,
and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance.
I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard,
and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does
not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is
indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have
no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft."

- Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853
