Starfish Prime Radiation

Famous quotes containing the words prime and/or radiation:

    “The prime purpose of being four is to enjoy being four—of secondary importance is to prepare for being five.”
    —Jim Trelease (20th century)

    “There are no accidents, only nature throwing her weight around. Even the bomb merely releases energy that nature has put there. Nuclear war would be just a spark in the grandeur of space. Nor can radiation “alter” nature: she will absorb it all. After the bomb, nature will pick up the cards we have spilled, shuffle them, and begin her game again.”
    —Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
