Molar Constant Volume

Famous quotes containing the words constant and/or volume:

“Love can no more continue without a constant motion than fire can; and when once you take hope and fear away, you take from it its very life and being.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

“F.R. Leavis’s “eat up your broccoli” approach to fiction emphasises this junkfood/wholefood dichotomy. If reading a novel—for the eighteenth century reader, the most frivolous of diversions—did not, by the middle of the twentieth century, make you a better person in some way, then you might as well flush the offending volume down the toilet, which was by far the best place for the undigested excreta of dubious nourishment.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
