The resulting formulas sufficed for all motions of a slow nature; it was found, however, that they would not conform to the rapid motions apparent in electrodynamics. Hendrik Lorentz

The term relativity refers to time and space. According to Galileo and Newton, time and space were absolute entities, and the moving systems of the universe were dependent on this absolute time and space. Hendrik Lorentz

Till now it was believed that time and space existed by themselves, even if there was nothing else--no sun, no earth, no stars. Hendrik Lorentz

While now we know that time and space are not the vessel for the universe, but could not exist at all if there were no contents, namely, no sun, earth and other celestial bodies. Hendrik Lorentz

Let there be in every material particle several material points charged with electricity, of which, however, only one be movable, and have the charge e and the mass μ. Hendrik Lorentz

I cannot but regard the ether, which can be the seat of an electromagnetic field with its energy and its vibrations, as endowed with a certain degree of substantiality, however different it may be from all ordinary matter. Hendrik Lorentz
