Particles Quotes

You're just a collection of particles that have come together by chance and by natural selection. - John Calvert

You'll see people wearing protective gear. Our concern is (contamination) from us to the particles, not the other way. - Tom Duxbury

You have that one basic string, but it can vibrate in many ways. But we're trying to get a lot of particles because experimental physicists have discovered a lot of particles. - Edward Witten

You don't want to use large lumps of aluminum because then you only get reactions on the outer surfaces of those lumps, so you don't produce enough hydrogen. What you would rather use is tiny particles that have a high surface area, which enables them to completely react, leaving no waste and producing more hydrogen. - Arvind Varma

When I hear the hypercritical quarreling about grammar and style, the position of the particles, etc., etc., stretching or contracting every speaker to certain rules of theirs. I see that they forget that the first requisite and rule is that expression shall be vital and natural, as much as the voice of a brute or an interjection: first of all, mother tongue; and last of all, artificial or father tongue. Essentially your truest poetic sentence is as free and lawless as a lamb's bleat. - Henry David Thoreau

What's amazing is that we're taking particles that you can't even image with a light microscope, and all of the sudden they cause a huge change in a macroscopic system. - Hugh Richardson

Whatever benefits are reaped from the improvement in one car are overwritten by the five cars that give out harmful particles and gases. - Frank Kelly

We've demonstrated that not only are particles useful for making bubbles last longer, they fundamentally alter the properties of these bubbles. Instead of behaving like a fluid surface that flows to balance unequal stresses, the 'armor' of particles on the surface of the bubbles actually supports the unequal stresses inherent in non-spherical shapes. - Anand Bala Subramaniam

We're the first to be able to tell you both the location of the particles and what kind of particles they are. - Mark Davidson
