Quotes About Energy

Live each day like your hair's on fire!

Kur njerëzit humbasin spontanitetin, atëherë kanë filluar të plaken.

And for me, the real world involves everything: risk, danger, beauty, energy, all we meet with in the real world.

We're all eating stars! Every day! What a marvelous annulus of accident and need.

Die Ermüdbarkeit des Menschen steht in umgekehrtem Verhältnis zu seinen wirklichen Interessen.

You rest, you rust.

Enthusiasm... - something close to passion at times... (is) the stuff brilliance (is) made of....

but each battery held five years bunched into increments of sixty seconds

What's the matter, Jess? Why are you sad?' And she'd have to explain that she wasn't sad, just tired, though how she could be so tired in the middle of the day with the sun shining and everything, she didn't know. It made her feel ashamed.

She smiled with a scary energy, as if she had been told to at gunpoint.

Safiye looked as if she was formed of fire herself, particles of flame dancing the flesh of her arm into existence. That or she was returning to fire.

Feeling challenged is an inherent performance steroid—your body releases more adrenaline than noradrenaline, which means the smooth muscle in your blood vessels dilate, as do your your lungs, and now you have more oxygenated blood going to the tissues that need it. Your body has more energy and your brain can think more clearly.

REALITY OF ZERO-POINT ENERGY The uncertainty relation implies that there cannot be a region in space totally devoid of electromagnetic fields. They may well be absent on the average, but their energy fluctuations have to satisfy the uncertainty relation. We described the Casimir effect; it is nothing but a consequence of the inevitable fluctuations of the electromagnetic field. The fluctuations of zero-point energy are real and measurable, even if the zero-point energy itself is not.

If the universe as we know it is nothing but a vacuum fluctuation with a purloined total energy that is not much different from zero, it may exist for quite a while before the vacuum decides to call in the loan.

The space that is added as the universe expands has the same properties-curvature, energy density-as the parent space.

The vacuum of physics contains in its faculties everything that the laws of nature will permit. It fluctuates-the virtual particles come and go. The only thing they may be missing is the energy it would take to make them appear as real particles. All that can appear in reality must be present as a possibility- as a state of virtual particles-in a vacuum. Addd energy to the vacuum and those virtual states may appear as particles.

The quantity that physicists call the specific heat of a substance is defined as the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 g of this substance by 1 degree Celsius.

There is no such thing as an indescribable material object. Every particle that meets its antiparticle gives up its identity and becomes radiative energy. In the process, the energy is conserved, but the structure of the particle-be it Democritus's sphere or a die, be it charged or neutral-vanishes. It dissolves into pure energy. All identity is absorbed in the sea of pure energy.

In physics terms, the reason for symmetry breaking is the instability of the symmetric state.

Light is an excitation of empty space proper, of the vacuum. It is no more and no less.

At the end of inflation, just as after the hot Big Bang, the universe is hot. It is, we might say, self-created by dint of its explosive growth: The inflationary process generates space, and the energy that space contains, from essentially nothing. To repeat Alan Guth's dictum, "The universe may be the ultimate free lunch.

Particle-antiparticle pairs fluctuating in the vacuum also permit the fusion of two real photons into a single one, in the presence of an external field.

What really transcends our understanding is the mechanism that permits these oscillations of abstract field quantities to carry energy. We know this is true; our relevant equations say so, and the solar energy collectors prove it. A photoelectric cell registers at this instant an energy that left the Sun, in the form of light, some eight minutes ago. Travelling across space, this light did not lose its energy; rather, it is part of the energetic excitations within empty space.
