Quotes about atom
atoms british-scientist sit
You may have heard the world is made up of atoms and molecules, but it's really made up of stories. When you sit with an individual that's been here, you can give quantitative data a qualitative overlay.
atoms gas liquid molecules move partners though whereas
The difference between a gas and a liquid is that in the former, the atoms and molecules move to and fro in an independent existence, whereas in the latter, they are always in touch with one another, though they are changing partners continually. William Henry Bragg
atoms combined compared form letters variety ways
The atoms may be compared to the letters of the alphabet, which can be put together into innumerable ways to form words. So the atoms are combined in equal variety to form what are called molecules. William Henry Bragg
atoms expression materials molecules properties solid strength tied variety ways
The infinite variety in the properties of the solid materials we find in the world is really the expression of the infinite variety of the ways in which the atoms and molecules can be tied together, and of the strength of those ties. William Henry Bragg
atoms enter far fast great hands hold meet motion pace sort time vain
In a gas, motion has the upper hand; the atoms are moving so fast that they have no time to enter into any sort of combination with each other: occasionally, atom must meet atom and, so to speak, each hold out vain hands to the other, but the pace is too great and, in a moment, they are far away from each other again. William Henry Bragg
atoms discovery increased individual ten thousand vision
Broadly speaking, the discovery of X-rays has increased the keenness of our vision ten thousand times, and we can now 'see' the individual atoms and molecules. William Henry Bragg
atom chain gas handed movement pass quicker sound workers
Sound is a movement which is handed on from atom to atom in a gas through which the sound is passing, just as a chain of workers pass buckets of water to a fire. The quicker the workers move their hands and arms, the quicker the water moves. William Henry Bragg
atoms builder constructs kinds limited nature
Let us think of Nature as a builder, making all that we see out of atoms of a limited number of kinds, just as the builder of a house constructs it out of so many different kinds of things: bricks, slates, planks, panes of glass, and so on. William Henry Bragg
atom cannot certain excited future state time
If we have an atom that is in an excited state and so is going to emit a photon, we cannot say when it will emit the photon. It has a certain amplitude to emit the photon at any time, and we can predict only a probability for emission; we cannot predict the future exactly. Richard P. Feynman
atomic bed century test
The 20th century was a test bed for big ideas - fascism, communism, the atomic bomb. P. J. O'Rourke
atom believe cast certainly commercial mainstream released
We believe the film is more mainstream than anything Atom has ever made. It's also more commercial then anything we've released before. The cast is certainly mainstream, and we believe it's an R-rated film.
atom desire infinite men motive mystery pains presence seek sensitive shroud taking
The Creator, in taking infinite pains to shroud with mystery His presence in every atom of creation, could have had but one motive - a sensitive desire that men seek Him only through free will. Paramahansa Yogananda
atomic bin creation nuclear scientists useful
To look for bin Laden now is as useful as detaining nuclear scientists after the creation of the atomic bomb. Robert Fisk
atoms billion bodies comet earth far four half library low picked records solar stardust sun system using virtually
Virtually all of the atoms in our bodies and in the Earth were in interstellar grains - stardust grains - before the solar system formed. We're using this comet as a library that picked up records of the formation of our solar system, and has been storing them far from the sun at very low temperatures for four and a half billion years.
atoms care faith flowering god love taking
I would love to have faith. When you take God out of the universe, there is no-one taking care us - we are just parcels of meat, collections of atoms - we have a little flowering on Earth, and then we're gone. Michel Faber
atoms contains fuel spread thousands whose
We are 'nuclear waste' from the fuel that makes stars shine; indeed, each of us contains atoms whose provenance can be traced back to thousands of different stars spread through our Milky Way. Martin Rees
atoms autonomous breaking concepts equations however offer quantum science scientists tropical
Everything, however complicated - breaking waves, migrating birds, and tropical forests - is made of atoms and obeys the equations of quantum physics. But even if those equations could be solved, they wouldn't offer the enlightenment that scientists seek. Each science has its own autonomous concepts and laws. Martin Rees
atomic discussed energy issues needs security strategic vital
On strategic issues we discussed the vital needs for energy security ... for India's need for atomic energy, Manmohan Singh
atom complex elementary revelation
One of the principal achievements of physics in the 20th century has been the revelation that the atom is not indivisible or elementary at all but has a complex structure. Sheldon Lee Glashow
atoms interact involves normally quantum weirdness
We talk about quantum weirdness and things being in two places at once, but it all involves atoms and molecules, stuff we don't normally interact with. Aaron D. O'Connell
atom believe fantasy finest grind honor humans people point powder rightness sort universe
Humans need fantasy to be human. Take the universe and grind it down to the finest powder and sieve it through the finest sieve and then show me one atom of justice, one molecule of mercy. And yet you act, like there was some sort of rightness in the universe by which it may be judged:Yes. But people have got to believe that or what's the point?My point exactly. Terry Pratchett
atomic became classes concerned effects offered science took undo
He was very concerned about atomic science, ... He took one of the first classes ever offered in the subject. It was then that he became concerned about the long-term effects of science - after all, you can't undo an A-bomb. Susan Taylor
atomic cannot rid
We have to get rid of those atomic weapons, here and everywhere. We cannot live with them. George Wald
atoms hydrogen percent rock whereas
When you vaporize rock, there is very little hydrogen -- whereas 50 percent of the atoms in a rock are oxygen.
atoms became began coming highly negatively positively
As the craft re-entered earth's atmosphere, it was coming in so fast, it heated up the surrounding atoms and molecules, and they became positively and negatively charged, and highly reactive, and began luminescing all around us. Helen Sharman
atom contains death experience finer heart leaves life moment past physical seed spirit taking
At the moment of death, when the seed atom in the heart is ruptured, which contains all the experience of the past life in a panoramic picture, the spirit leaves its physical body, taking with it the finer bodies. Max Heindel
