Energy Shell

Famous quotes containing the words energy and/or shell:

“Reckoned physiologically, everything ugly weakens and afflicts man. It recalls decay, danger, impotence; he actually suffers a loss of energy in its presence. The effect of the ugly can be measured with a dynamometer. Whenever man feels in any way depressed, he senses the proximity of something “ugly.” His feeling of power, his will to power, his courage, his pride—they decline with the ugly, they increase with the beautiful.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“Billy: You dropped some shell in there.
Ted: It’s all right. Makes it crunchier that way. You like French toast crunchy, don’t you?”
—Robert Benton (b. 1932)
