“For most persons, the mystical kundalini energy is easier to initially perceive, unless you're extremely sensitive. It's more of a rush, a flash. There's an electric quality to it, a burning heat.” PersonsEnergyQualityBuddhismEasierBurningPerceiveSensitiveHeatElectricFlashMystical Author:Frederick Lenz
“You feel a certain way in a glass or concrete or limestone building. It has an effect on your skin - the same with plywood or veneer, or solid timber. Wood doesn't steal energy from your body the way glass and concrete steal heat. When it's hot, a wood house feels cooler than a concrete one, and when it's cold, the other way around.” WayFeelsBodyCertainHouseEnergyEffectsBuildingColdSkinsHotGlassesWoodsYour BodyStealingHeatConcreteTimberVeneerLimestone Author:Peter Zumthor
“The increase in the amount of heat in the oceans amounts to 17 x 10^22 Joules over the last 30 years. That is so much energy it is equivalent to exploding a Hiroshima bomb every second in the ocean for thirty years.” YearsLastsEnergyAmountOceanIncreaseHeatThirtyBombsThirty YearsEvery SecondExplodingHiroshima Author:Stefan Rahmstorf
“Doing the same things you did when the economy was good is not good enough. You will have to put more coals on the fire in a poor economy to get the same heat you received in a good economy. You must give more energy, more thought, more service, and get into positive thinking material more frequently. Become more selective about who you spend time with. Love a little more, hate a little less. Think about it. You can progressively move on an upward path toward any goal. The choice is yours as to who or what controls you!” ThinkingGivingLittlesEnoughMovingHateChoicesEnergyGoalPoorEconomyPathFirePositive ThinkingMaterialsHeatGood EnoughEnd TimesCoalSpend TimeNot Good EnoughSelective Author:Bob Proctor
“The laws of thermodynamics may be regarded as particular cases of more general laws, applicable to all such states of matter as constitute Energy , or the capacity to perform work, which more general laws form the basis of the science of energetics, a science comprehending, as special branches, the theories of motion, heat, light , electricity , and all other physical phenomena.” MayMatterStatesLightFormLawEnergyCasesSpecialParticularTheoryCapacityBasesHeatBranchesPhenomenonElectricityThermodynamicsComprehending Book:A Manual of the Steam Engine and Other Prime Movers by William John Macquorn Rankine Source: A Manual of the Steam Engine and Other Prime Movers by William John Macquorn Rankine
“This law (regarding the theoretical efficiency of heat engines by Mr. Joule), and the law of the maximum efficiency of heat engines, are particular cases of a general law which regulates all transformation of energy, and is the basis of the Science of Energetics.” LawEnergyCasesParticularBasesTransformationHeatEnginesEfficiencyMaximumTheoretical Author:William John Macquorn Rankine
“The transition from coal, oil, and gas to wind, solar, and geothermal energy is well under way. In the old economy, energy was produced by burning something - oil, coal, or natural gas - leading to the carbon emissions that have come to define our economy. The new energy economy harnesses the energy in wind, the energy coming from the sun, and heat from within the earth itself.” WayWellsEarthEnergyNaturalEconomySunWindOilBurningHeatGasTransitionCarbonCoalEmissionsHarnessNatural GasOil And GasCarbon EmissionsNew EnergyAlternative EnergyGeothermalGeothermal Energy Author:Lester R.

“To me, the process of writing is just reading what I've written and - like running your hand over one of those mod glass stovetops to find where the heat is - looking for where the energy is in the prose, then going in the direction of that.

“It is conceivable that animal life might have the attribute of using the heat of surrounding matter, at its natural temperature, as a source of energy for mechanical effect . . . .The influence of animal or vegetable life on matter is infinitely beyond the range of any scientific enquiry hitherto entered on. Its power of directing the motions of moving particles, in the demonstrated daily miracle of our human free-will, and in the growth of generation after generation of plants from a single seed, are infinitely different from any possible result of the fortuitous concurrence of atoms.” HumansDifferentMatterMightMovingEnergyGrowthNaturalAnimalResultsGenerationsInfluenceEffectsSourceMiraclePlantSeedsRangeHeatFree WillAttributesAtomsVegetablesParticlesTemperatureAnimal LifeEnquiryFortuitousConcurrenceDaily Miracles Author:Lord Kelvin
“We can look at the way of improving the key biochemical processes like photosynthesis itself. A lot of energy is lost to keep the plant cool. So maybe we can think of building plants which are more resistant to heat. Genetically modified plants can be one answer and we can imagine more efficient plants, call them 'energy plants'. And I believe, contrary to what ecologists think, they can still be beautiful plants.” ThinkingWayBelieveLooksStillsBeautifulEnergyLostI BelieveProcessAnswersImagineBuildingKeysPlantContraryHeatEfficientImprovingGenetically ModifiedPhotosynthesis Author:Jean-Marie Lehn
