Famous quotes containing the word physics:
“We must be physicists in order ... to be creative since so far codes of values and ideals have been constructed in ignorance of physics or even in contradiction to physics.”

Cancels our physics with a sneer,
And spatters all we knew of denouement
Across the expedient and wicked stones.”
