“If the experimental physicist has already done a great deal of work in this field, nevertheless the theoretical physicist has still hardly begun to evaluate the experimental material which may lead him to conclusions about the structure of the atom.” IfsMayStillsDoneDealsFieldsMaterialsStructureConclusionAtomsNeverthelessPhysicistTheoreticalEvaluate Author:Johannes Stark
“Our planet consists largely of lumps of fall-out from a star-sized hydrogen bomb. Within our bodies, no less than three million atoms rendered unstable in that event still erupt every minute, releasing a tiny fraction of the energy stored from that fierce fire of long ago.” LongStillsBodyFallThreeEnergyStarsMillionsFireMinutesEventsPlanetsTinyBombsAtomsFierceLong AgoOur PlanetFractionsUnstableLumpsHydrogenHydrogen Bomb Author:James Lovelock
“What is the most rigorous law of our being? Growth. No smallest atom of our moral, mental, or physical structure can stand still a year. It grows--it must grow smaller or larger, better or worse--it cannot stand still. In other words, we change--and must change, constantly, and keep on changing as long as we live. What, then, is the true Gospel of consistency? Change. Who is the really consistent man? The man who changes. Since change is the law of his being, he cannot be consistent if he's stuck in a rut.” IfsMenYearsLongStillsLawGrowsGrowthMoralHe ManStructureStuckConsistentAtomsSmallestConsistencyRutsStuck In A Rut Author:Mark Twain
