Famous quotes containing the words black, body and/or radiation:
“A slight wind shakes the seed-pods
my thoughts are spent
as the black seeds.”
—Hilda Doolittle (18861961)
“We may well ask, What causes induce us to believe in the existence of body? but tis vain to ask. Whether there be body or not? That is a point which we must take for granted in all our reasonings.”
—David Hume (17111776)
“There are no accidents, only nature throwing her weight around. Even the bomb merely releases energy that nature has put there. Nuclear war would be just a spark in the grandeur of space. Nor can radiation alter nature: she will absorb it all. After the bomb, nature will pick up the cards we have spilled, shuffle them, and begin her game again.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
