“The Tyranni rule fifty worlds; they are outnumbered hundreds to one. In such a position, simple force is insufficient. Devious methods, intrigue, assassination are their specialties. The net they weave across space is a wide one, and close-meshed. I can well believe that it extends across five hundred light-years to Earth.” WorldYearsBelieveWellsI CanLightEarthForceSimpleSpaceFivePositionHundredMethodWideFiftyIntrigueAssassinationInsufficientSpecialtyDeviousLight Years Book:The Stars, Like Dust Source: The Stars, Like Dust

“if you don't keep and guard and mature your force, and above all, have time and quiet to perfect your work, you will be writing things not much better than you did five years ago. ... you must write to the human heart, the great consciousness that all humanity goes to make up. Otherwise what might be strength in a writer is only crudeness, and what might be insight is only observation; sentimemnt falls to sentimentality - you can write about life, but never write life itself.” IfsWritingYearsHumansHeartMightHumanityFallForcePerfectConsciousnessFiveQuietYears AgoInsightObservationFive YearsMatureHuman HeartBetter Than YouSentimentality Author:Sarah Orne Jewett

“Superstring theories provide a framework in which the force of gravity may be united with the other three forces in nature: the weak, electromagnetic and strong forces. Recent progress has shown that the most promising superstring theories follow from a single theory. For the last generation, physicists have studied five string theories and one close cousin. Recently it has become clear that these five or six theories are different limiting cases of one theory which, though still scarcely understood, is the candidate for superunification of the forces of nature.” MayStillsDifferentLastsThreeStrongForceUnitedCasesClearFiveProgressGenerationsTheorySixUnderstoodWeakCandidatesStringsGravityCousinPhysicistFrameworkForces Of NatureString Theory Author:Edward Witten
“Every singer has three or four or five techniques, and you can force them together in different combinations. Some of the techniques you discard along the way, and pick up others. But you do need them. It's just like anything. You have to know certain things about what you're doing that other people don't know. Singing has to do with techniques and how many you use at the same time. One alone doesn't work. There's no point to going over three. But you might interchange them whenever you feel like it. It's a bit like alchemy.” PeopleKnowsWayNeedsFeelsDifferentUseMightTogetherCertainThreeForceBitsFiveFourSingingPicksTechniqueSingersCombinationNo PointAlchemyInterchange Author:Bob Dylan
