Maria Montessori Quotes

Nothing is created or destroyed in nature.

'Conservation' (the conservation law) means this ... that there is a number, which you can calculate, at one moment-and as nature undergoes its multitude of changes, this number doesn't change. That is, if you calculate again, this quantity, it'll be the same as it was before. An example is the conservation of energy: there's a quantity that you can calculate according to a certain rule, and it comes out the same answer after, no matter what happens, happens.

Energy Is Conserved.

There is nothing more certain in nature than that it is impossible for any body to be utterly annihilated.

I know that nothing is destructible; things merely change forms.

Physics is based on the assumption that certain fundamental features of nature are constant.

There is a conservation of matter and of energy, there may be a conservation of life; or if not of life, of something which transcends life.

Something cannot be made out of nothing. Nor can something be made to go back to nothing.

Strict conservation of energy in the elementary process had thus been confirmed also by a negative experiment.

Nothing can create something all the time due to the laws of quantum mechanics, and it's - it's fascinatingly interesting.

It is just physics - who can argue with Newton and the first law of thermodynamics?

One of the bedrock principles of physics is the conservation of energy. In this universe, energy can be neither created nor destroyed.

Nature abhors a hero. For one thing, he violates the law of conservation of energy. For another, how can it be the survival of the fittest when the fittest keeps putting himself in situations where he is most likely to be creamed?

We're electrical items and when we die the electricity goes somewhere else. When we die our energy goes into the galaxy.

What's taken God 200 years to create was wiped out in a couple of days by what was apparently an arsonist, And it just shows you what a sick world we live in nowadays.

Nature never breaks her own laws.

Energy can't be created or destroyed, and energy flows. It must be in a direction, with some kind of internal, emotive, spiritual direction. It must have some effect somewhere.

The worst tragedy that could have befallen me was my success. I knew right away that I was through - cast out.

If I have learned nothing else …, I have thoroughly learned to keep hands off the processes of nature.

Nature has a way of giving back. And we can never go against it.

I've talked to ghosts once. For me, it makes sense for them to be real because of physics. In physics, you can't destroy energy; it can only be conserved.

The only ultimate disaster that can befall us is to feel ourselves at home on this earth.

In Nature there is no dirt, everything is in the right condition; the swamp and the worm, as well as the grass and the bird,-all is there for itself.

When the film stock disappears, the matter - because movies are matter - (disappears). The laws of this have been established by Newton, Einstein, and others: there is a correspondence between light and matter, and light is matter. And energy.
