The atoms become like a moth, seeking out the region of higher laser intensity.
Mass travel by air may prove to be more significant to world destiny than the atom bomb.
I, a universe of atoms, an atom in the universe.
We spend our lives on a thin slice between the unimaginably small scales of the atoms that compose us and the infinitely large scales of galaxies.
I can accept the theory of relativity as little as I can accept the existence of atoms and other such dogmas.
If you show this devious little liar one atom's worth of compassion I will have you shot.
What would happen if we could arrange the atoms one by one the way we want them?
We have here a proof that there is in the atom a fundamental quantity, which increases by regular steps as one passes from one element to the next. This quantity can only be the charge on the central positive nucleus, of the existence of which we already have definite proof.
We must infer that a plant or animal of any species, is made up of special units, in all of which there dwells the intrinsic aptitude to aggregate into the form of that species: just as in the atoms of a salt, there dwells the intrinsic aptitude to crystallize in a particular way.
In each atom, in each corpuscle, is life. Life is what you worship as God. . . and earth is only an atom in the universe of worlds.
Not a ray is dimmed, not an atom worn; nature's oldest force is as good as new.
Now we have lit a candle to the power Of atoms; now we know we're heirs of light Itself.
The universe evolves in consciousness of itself and causes itself to be. We are just this blessed consciousness, nothing more and nothing less. We are the light inside light that fuses into the atoms of our bodies; we are the fire that whirls across the stellar deeps and dances all things into being.
Ectoplasmic plane? What the devil is that? (Simone) It’s jargon from those of us who are corporeally challenged. It’s the great beyond where we bounce into each other like floundering atoms. It’s really kind of gross – which is why I hang out with you. But only because you’re less gross than they are. (Jesse)
Dead isn’t angels or ghosts. It’s a physical state of breakdown, a change in all those carbon atoms that create the temporary house of a body so that they can return to their most elemental stage.
Kennedy after all has lots of glamour - Gregory Peck with an atom bomb in his holster.
Atoms are mainly empty space. Matter is composed chiefly of nothing.
I got into nuclear science when I was about 10 years old I was fascinated by the stuff. I was fascinated by the reactions and the power inside these atoms that we had the capability to unlock.
As a single atom man is an enigma: as a whole he is a mathematical problem. As an individual he is a free agent, as a species the offspring of necessity.
Now where there are no parts, there neither extension, nor shape, nor divisibility is possible. And these monads are the true atoms of nature and, in a word, the elements of things.
