There exists everywhere a medium in things, determined by equilibrium.

I have achieved an inner freedom.

No law of nature, however general, has been established all at once; its recognition has always been preceded by many presentiments.

Pleasures flit by - they are only for yourself; work leaves a mark of long-lasting joy, work is for others.

It is the function of science to discover the existence of a general reign of order in nature and to find the causes governing this order. And this refers in equal measure to the relations of man - social and political - and to the entire universe as a whole.

Elements which are similar as regards their chemical properties have atomic weights which are either of nearly the same value (eg. Pt, Ir, Os) or which increase regularly (eg. K, Ru, Cs).

There is nothing in this world that I fear to say.

Certain characteristic properties of elements can be foretold from their atomic weights.

The magnitude of the atomic weight determines the character of the element, just as the magnitude of the molecule determines the character of a compound body.

Work, look for peace and calm in work: you will find it nowhere else.

We must expect the discovery of many as yet unknown elements-for example, elements analogous to aluminum and silicon- whose atomic weight would be between 65 and 75.

The most all penetrating spirit before which will open the possibility of tilting not tables, but planets, is the spirit of free human inquiry. Believe only in that.

The establishment of a law, moreover, does not take place when the first thought of it takes form, or even when its significance is recognised, but only when it has been confirmed by the results of the experiment.

We could live at the present day without a Plato, but a double number of Newtons is required to discover the secrets of nature, and to bring life into harmony with the laws of nature.

The elements which are the most widely diffused have small atomic weights.

I want you to have this feeling too - it is my moral responsibility to help you achieve this inner freedom.

There exists everywhere a medium in things, determined by equilibrium.

No one nor anything can silence me.

The elements, if arranged according to their atomic weights, exhibit an apparent periodicity of properties.

There are worse words than cuss words, there are words that hurt.

Change requires you to shift your identity of who you are.

Once a person has all the things they need to live, everything else is entertainment.

We have this film that we hope to finance, it's called 'Southern Rights.' It's a documentary about segregated proms that are still happening in the South of America. So there's a black prom and a white prom, so we hope to finance a film soon about that.

Every generation has their challenge. And things change rapidly, and life gets better in an instant.

Experience teaches that when the will and imagination are in conflict, the imagination usually wins. What we imagine may defeat our reason and make us slaves to what we taste, see, hear, smell, and feel in the mind's eye. The body is indeed the servant of the mind.

'Malvolio' is the one show of mine that will not die. I've performed it more than 200 times all over the place.

I feel like the only person in the world who sees David Beckham modelling his swimming pants on the cover of Elle magazine and thinks - oh, how much better a handsome guy like you would look, David, without all those dumb ink stains stitched into your skin.

There is not a single one of us with a job that is not completely reliant in some way shape or form on others.

I think the first 10 years of my daughter's life were my mother's happiest, because she could finally have carefree time with a kid.

I would eat fruitcake if there'd been a nuclear war and I'd run out of canned goods.

I think we're much smarter than we were. Everybody knows that abstract art can be art, and most people know that they may not like it, even if they understand there's another purpose to it.

Sometimes spectacular things look really great, but when push comes to shove come fifth round, the basics, fundamentals and technical aspects are going to come into effect.

Everyone who means well gives advice based on his or her perception. I have realized that while it's important to hear the suggestions, one should only listen to oneself.

If you need three adjectives to describe something, then you've probably chosen the wrong something.

You know, the truth is that us actors would all like to believe we re-invent the wheel, every time we play a character. But, we're human beings and our instruments are not violins, they are our bodies and our consciousness and our collective life experience.

It causes me great pain to sue the company I work for. Nevertheless, I had to do it. Suffice it to say, there's a dispute and I believe I haven't been given what is mine.

I play the unsinkable Molly Brown, which is where she got her name from, because she survived.

I like the Foo Fighters a lot - apart from them being friends of mine as well. They're definitely a fantastic live act to see: so much energy and possibly even bigger in Europe than they are in the U.S., and that's great.

From 15 to 18, everybody is a different person. Every six months, I have a whole new outlook on life.

The social potential movement is on the threshold of a mass awakening, seeking to carry into society what individuals have learned spiritually and personally.

I am powerful.

Every time I get up in the morning, melodies occur to me and I start trying to shape lyrics to melodies.

There are victories of the soul and spirit. Sometimes even if you lose you win.
