Quotes About Light

As long as she had that light, there would always be a chance.
~ Stephen Chbosky
The shadows were not terrifying. They were the proof that light exists. The fire and brimstone were all a mirage. The clouds nothing but steam inside a bathroom. All he needed to do was wipe away the mirror. He didn't need a key. He was the key.
~ Stephen Chbosky
I CAN SEE IT. THIS ONE MOMENT WHEN YOU KNOW YOURE NOT A SAD STORY. YOU ARE ALIVE, AND YOU STAND UP AND SEE THE LIGHTS ON THE BUILDINGS AND EVERYTHING THAT MAKES YOU WONDER. AND YOURE LISTENING TO THAT SONG ON THAT DRIVE WITH THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE MOST IN THIS WORLD. AND IN THIS MOMENT I SWEAR, WE ARE INFINITE.
~ Stephen Chbosky
ketika kita memandang permasalahan dan beban itu berasal dari diri kita,justru pada saat itu sebenarnya kita lah yang bermasalah. sedangkan pepatah cina mengatakan dari pada mengutuki kegelapan lebih baik ambil sebatang lilin dan nyalakan
~ Stephen Covey
The moon had been lighted and was hung in a treetop.
~ Stephen Crane
The fire cackled musically. From it swelled light smoke. Overhead the foliage moved softly. The leaves, with their faces turned toward the blaze, were colored shifting hues of silver, often edged with red. Far off to the right, through a window in the forest could be seen a handful of stars lying, like glittering pebbles, on the black level of the night.
~ Stephen Crane
Between funny and witty Falls the shadow
~ Stephen Fry
I cannot bear natural light when I'm writing.
~ Stephen Fry
Curiosity has wrongly, by those with a vested interest in ignorance and their own revealed truths, been traduced and eternally characterised as a dangerous felicide, but you, dearest of dear, dear readers, know that Curiosity lights the way to glory.
~ Stephen Fry
Continually trying to look on the bright side interferes with our finding the wisdom that lies in the fruitful darkness. Continually striving upward toward the light means we never grow downward into our own feet, never become firmly rooted on the earth, never explore the darkness within and around us, a darkness without whose existence the light would have no meaning.
~ Stephen Harrod Buhner
There was a young lady of Wight Who travelled much faster than light. She departed one day, In a relative way, And arrived on the previous night. The point is that the theory of relativity says that there is no unique measure of time that all observers will agree on.
~ Stephen Hawking
As an object approaches the speed of light, its mass rises ever more quickly, so it takes more and more energy to speed it up further. It can in fact never reach the speed of light, because by then its mass would have become infinite, and by the equivalence of mass and energy, it would have taken an infinite amount of energy to get it there. For this reason, any normal object is forever confined by relativity to move at speeds slower than the speed of light.
~ Stephen Hawking

famous equation, E = mc2. So, if there's
~ Stephen Hawking
Only light, or other waves that have no intrinsic mass, can move at the speed of light.
~ Stephen Hawking
The fact that light travels at a finite, but very high, speed was first discovered in 1676 by the Danish astronomer Ole Christensen Roemer.
~ Stephen Hawking
What most of these authors don't seem to have realized is that if you can travel faster than light, the theory of relativity implies you can also travel back in time, as the following limerick says: There was a young lady of Wight Who travelled much faster than light. She departed one day, In a relative way, And arrived on the previous night.
~ Stephen Hawking
Visible light has a wavelength of between only forty and eighty millionths of a centimeter. Even shorter wavelengths are known as ultraviolet, X rays, and gamma rays. Maxwell's theory predicted that radio or light waves should travel at a certain fixed speed.
~ Stephen Hawking
As the poet Alexander Pope said: Nature and Nature's laws lay hid in night: God said, Let Newton be! and all was light.
~ Stephen Hawking

~ Stephen Hawking
Segundo algumas teorias, o universo que vivenciamos é apenas uma superfície quadridimensional em um espaço com dez ou onze dimensões. O filme Interestelar dá uma ideia de como isso funcionaria. Nós não veríamos essas dimensões extras porque a luz não se propagaria por elas, mas apenas pelas quatro dimensões do nosso universo.
~ Stephen Hawking
the light that we see from distant galaxies left them millions of years ago, and in the case of the most distant object that we have seen, the light left some eight thousand million years ago. Thus, when we look at the universe, we are seeing it as it was in the past.
~ Stephen Hawking
any normal object is forever confined by relativity to move at speeds slower than the speed of light. Only light, or other waves that have no intrinsic mass, can move at the speed of light.
~ Stephen Hawking
For every event in space-time we may construct a light cone (the set of all possible paths of light in space-time emitted at that event), and since the speed of light is the same at every event and in every direction, all the light cones will be identical and will all point in the same direction.
~ Stephen Hawking
