“The most common and most important result of them is that the nature and size of the effect on corresponding series of different elements are largely an expression of the peculiarity of their atomic structure - or, at least, of the structure of the surface.” ImportantDifferentResultsCommonEffectsExpressionElementsStructureSeriesSizeSurfaceCorrespondingAtomic Structure Author:Johannes Stark
“The 'how' has a great effect on what we see. To say that 'what we see' is more important than 'how we see it' is to think that 'how' has been settled and fixed.

“The spiritual life is the real life; all else is illusion and deception. Only those who are attached to God alone are truly free. Only those who live up to the highest light live in harmony.

“At the moment, it actually says nothing about a possible cosmic-ray effect on clouds and climate, but it's a very important first step.” This may be because he was ordered to speak circumspectly. According to science writer Nigel Calder, Rolf-Dieter Heuer, the director of the CERN lab, told a German newspaper that “I have asked the colleagues to present the results clearly, but not to interpret them. That would go immediately into the highly political arena of the climate change debate. One has to make clear that cosmic radiation is only one of many parameters.” FirstsMayImportantMomentsPoliticalSpeakResultsStepsClearEffectsDirectorsClimateClimate ChangeCloudsDebateNewspapersRaysCosmicRadiationFirst StepsColleaguesArenaLabsParametersCosmic RaysCern Author:Rolf-Dieter Heuer

“The more important point, however, is not about what the money does. It's about what has to be done to get the money. The effect of the money might be (democratically) benign. But what is done to secure that money is not necessarily benign.
