Radiant energy, which at the beginning [of the universe] played a predominant role in the evolutionary process, gradually lost its importance and by the end of the thirty-millionth year yielded its priority in favor of ordinary atomic matter. George Gamow

The history of man is dominated by, and reflects, the amount of available energy. Frederick Soddy

Heat energy of uniform temperature [is] the ultimate fate of all energy. The power of sunlight and coal, electric power, water power, winds and tides do the work of the world, and in the end all unite to hasten the merry molecular dance. Frederick Soddy

I believe that there have been civilisations in the past that were familiar with atomic energy, and that by misusing it they were totally destroyed. Frederick Soddy

It is as if when a circular wave on water met an obstacle, the wave were all suddenly to travel round the circle and disappear all round and concentrate its energy on attacking the obstacle. Henry Moseley

The fact remains that, if the supply of energy failed, modern civilization would come to an end as abruptly as does the music of an organ deprived of wind. Frederick Soddy

I had now arrived at my seventeenth year, and had attained my full height, a fraction over six feet. I was well endowed with youthful energy, and was of an extremely sanguine temperament. Henry Bessemer

Hence, only given amounts of energy can be transferred to the atom, and each of the possible energy amounts is equal to the excitation energy of a given excited state of the atom. Gustav Ludwig Hertz

In the experimental investigation of these processes a given energy is usually imparted to the electrons by accelerating them by a given voltage. Gustav Ludwig Hertz

The reason why the energy levels are negative here, is simply due to the omission of an arbitrary constant which has always to be added to the energy; here it is omitted because we are simply determining the energy differences. Gustav Ludwig Hertz
