Kurt Vonnegut

Electrons Are Quotes #603503
#20. It's the pattern that matters, you see. Not the choice of building materials. Life is information, shaped by natural selection. Carbon's just fashion, nucleic acids mere optional accessories. Electrons can do all that stuff, if they're coded the right way. It's all just pattern.

Peter Watts

Electrons Are Quotes #596675

Arthur Eddington

Electrons Are Quotes #342561
#72. The basic 110-volt AC power line moves the electrons at 60 cycles. If a transformer is close to the power source (and all speakers have transformers), the 60 cycles produce an audible hum. Crackling, caused by dirt on the sound head, can also be heard.

Sidney Lumet

Electrons Are Quotes #310157
