The force generated by nonviolence is infinitely greater than the force of all the arms created by man's ingenuity.

Mahatma Gandhi

Nonviolence is the law of the human race and is infinitely greater than, and superior to, brute force.

Mahatma Gandhi

Electricity and magnetism are those forces of nature by which people who know nothing about electricity and magnetism can explain everything.

Egon Friedell

A discovery is like falling in love and reaching the top of a mountain after a hard climb all in one, an ecstasy not induced by drugs but by the revelation of a face of nature that no one has seen before and that often turns out to be more subtle and wonderful than anyone had imagined.

Max Perutz

Nonviolence of the strong is infinitely braver than their violence.

Mahatma Gandhi

All our inventions have endowed material forces with intellectual life, and degraded human life into a material force.

Karl Marx

Nature is not personal. She is the compound of all these processes which move through the universe to effect the results we know as Life and of all the ordinances which govern that universe and that make Life continuous. She is no more the Hebrew's Jehovah than she is the Physicist's Force; she is as much Providence as she is Electricity; she is not the Great Pattern any more than she is the Blind Chance.

Luther Burbank

Art does not lie in copying nature.- Nature furnishes the material by means of which is to express a beauty still unexpressed in nature.-The artist beholds in nature more than she herself is conscious of.

Henry James

But however mysterious is nature , however ignorant the doctor, however imperfect the present state of physical science , the patronage and the success of quacks and quackeries are infinitely more wonderful than those of honest and laborious men of science and their careful experiments.

P. T. Barnum

There is a driving force more powerful than steam, electricity and nuclear power: the will.

Albert Einstein

The goodness of God is infinitely more wonderful than we will ever be able to comprehend.

Aiden Wilson Tozer

Labour is the source of all wealth, the political economists assert. And it really is the source -- next to nature, which supplies it with the material that it converts into wealth. But it is even infinitely more than this. It is the prime basic condition for all human existence, and this to such an extent that, in a sense, we have to say that labour created man himself.

Friedrich Engels

In your body, there exists a subtle current of electricity, very subtle. But the subtler it is, the deeper it goes. It is not very visible. Scientists say that all the electricity that is in your body, if put together, can be used to light a five-candle bulb. It is not much. Quantitatively it is not much, quantitatively the atom is not much, but qualitatively... If it explodes, it has tremendous energy in it.

Rajneesh

But nature is always more subtle, more intricate, more elegant than what we are able to imagine.

Carl Sagan

This is the law of prosperity: When apparent adversity comes, be not cast down by it, but make the best of it, and always look forward for better things, for conditions more prosperous. To hold yourself in this attitude of mind is to set into operation subtle, silent, and irresistible forces that sooner or later will actualize in material form that which is today merely an idea. But ideas have occult power, and ideas, when rightly planted and rightly tended, are the seeds that actualize material conditions.
