Famous quotes containing the words particles and/or size:
“The atoms of Democritus
And Newtons particles of light
Are sands upon the Red Sea shore,
Where Israels tents do shine so bright.”
—William Blake (17571827)
“One writes of scars healed, a loose parallel to the pathology of the skin, but there is no such thing in the life of an individual. There are open wounds, shrunk sometimes to the size of a pin-prick but wounds still. The marks of suffering are more comparable to the loss of a finger, or the sight of an eye. We may not miss them, either, for one minute in a year, but if we should there is nothing to be done about it.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (18961940)
