We have learnt through experience that when an electrical ray strikes the surface of an atom, an electron, and in some circumstances a second and even a third electron, can be detached.

Along a series of lines running from longer to shorter wavelengths the effect of the electric field becomes greater as the serial numbers increase - that is, as the wavelength decreases.

By recognizing that the chemical atom is composed of single separable electric quanta, humanity has taken a great step forward in the investigation of the natural world.

By allowing the positive ions to pass through an electric field and thus giving them a certain velocity, it is possible to distinguish them from the neutral, stationary atoms.

The question of the composition of perceptible objects is one which already occupied the mind of the ancient Greeks.

A beam of luminous hydrogen canal rays has, owing to its velocity, exactly the same direction as that of the electric field in which it may be made to move.

The removal of an electron from the surface of an atom - that is, the ionization of the atom - means a fundamental structural change in its surface layer.

The emitters of the spectral series are without exception single atoms, not compounds of atoms.

The movement of the emitters of the spectral lines may be deduced on the basis of the Doppler principle.

The discovery of various phenomena has led to a recognition of the fact that the chemical atom is an individual which again is itself made up of several units into a selfcontained whole.

It is more likely that more than a century will pass before we know the structure of the chemical atoms as thoroughly as we do our solar system.

For the listener, who listens in the snow, / And, nothing himself, beholds /Nothing that is not there and the nothing that is.

Let my love show you the way and give you guidance in the moment of need.

Never judge a book by its "spine".

Politicians are easy to attack, but frankly, we are all guilty of not meeting the needs of Africa's young people properly.

Coolidge really hated government being in the power business. He thought it was wrong. He saw the potential for growth in the power business. He didn't want the federal government in it.

It is not up to the senators to determine whether an NGO is bogus or not

I love doing photo shoots... I mean, if I could just sign with IMG and do ad campaigns and model more, I’d do that... Because that’s fun for me. That’s not work.

I would rather be tough on myself than have other people be tough on me.

The only influence that can really upset the injustice and iniquity of men is the power that breathes in the Christian tradition, renewing our participation in the Life that is the Light of men.

Nothing lasts forever, but old Fords and a natural stone.
