Specific Heat Ratio

Famous quotes containing the words specific, heat and/or ratio:

    Patriotism is proud of a country’s virtues and eager to correct its deficiencies; it also acknowledges the legitimate patriotism of other countries, with their own specific virtues. The pride of nationalism, however, trumpets its country’s virtues and denies its deficiencies, while it is contemptuous toward the virtues of other countries. It wants to be, and proclaims itself to be, “the greatest,” but greatness is not required of a country; only goodness is.
    Sydney J. Harris (1917–1986)

    The LORD will afflict you with consumption, fever, inflammation, with fiery heat and drought, and with blight and mildew...
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 28:22.

    A magazine or a newspaper is a shop. Each is an experiment and represents a new focus, a new ratio between commerce and intellect.
    John Jay Chapman (1862–1933)
