Atoms

Famous quotes containing the word atoms:

    The atoms of Democritus
    And Newton’s particles of light
    Are sands upon the Red Sea shore,
    Where Israel’s tents do shine so bright.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    No imperfection in budded mountain,
    Valleys breathe, heaven and earth move together,
    daisies push inches of yellow air, vegetables tremble,
    green atoms shimmer in grassy mandalas,
    sheep speckle the mountainside, revolving their jaws with empty eyes,
    horses dance in the warm rain,
    Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)

    It is the way unseen, the certain route,
    Where ever bound, yet thou art ever free;
    The path of Him, whose perfect law of love
    Bids spheres and atoms in just order move.
    Jones Very (1831–1880)
