Strange Particles

Famous quotes containing the words strange and/or particles:

    Now could I, Casca, name to thee a man
    Most like this dreadful night,
    That thunders, lightens, opens graves, and roars
    As doth the lion in the Capitol—
    A man no mightier than thyself or me
    In personal action, yet prodigious grown
    And fearful, as these strange eruptions are.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The atoms of Democritus
    And Newton’s particles of light
    Are sands upon the Red Sea shore,
    Where Israel’s tents do shine so bright.
    William Blake (1757–1827)
