For in 1900 all electromagnetic radiation of longer wavelengths was already known at least to the extent that one could not seek in it the more striking characteristics of X-rays such as, for example, the strong penetrating power.
Max von Laue
Image
in a sense, all poetry is positional: to try to express one's position in regard to the universe embraced by consciousness, is an immemorial urge. The arms of consciousness reach out and grope, and the longer they are the better. Tentacles, not wings, are Apollo's natural members.
Vladimir Nabokov
Image
We no longer live in a world that is neatly divided between rich and well-educated countries, and poor and badly-educated ones.
Andreas Schleicher
Image
The difference between a regular camera and a 3D camera, for an actor, is really no different except that the turn-arounds are longer. It takes a lot longer to set up a shot because the cinematographer is really trying to set up a whole world, so it can't be more intricate and more beautiful to the viewers, in 3D.

There's absolutely no purpose for me ever to embarrass an actor by not getting the best possible performance. So, if it takes staying longer, then we'll staying longer and work through it.
Andrea Romano
Image
There are young men who want thrills but no longer value sex, so they do completely different things, including aggressive things.
Volkmar Sigusch
Image
Life is thickly sown with thorns. I know no other remedy than to pass rapidly over them. The longer we dwell on our misfortunes the greater is their power to harm us.
Voltaire
Image
The man who leaves money to charity in his will is only giving away what no longer belongs to him
Voltaire
Image
Nothing lasts longer than a temporary government program.
Ronald Reagan
Image
Only when manhood is dead - and it will perish when ravaged femininity no longer sustains it - only then will we know what it is to be free.
Andrea Dworkin
Image
When a man is in love, jealous, and just whipped by the Inquisition, he is no longer himself.
Voltaire
Image
Take a look at the way that Trump has described some of the foreign countries that we deal with - some that are allies and some that are not. China is one example. He said they were currency manipulators, but after he sat down with President Xi and had a piece of chocolate cake, he then said they were no longer currency manipulators.
Maxine Waters
Image
When one man speaks to another man who doesn't understand him, and when a man who's speaking no longer understands, it's metaphysics.
Voltaire
Image
Every beauty, when out of it's place, is a beauty no longer.
Voltaire
Image
Technology is like a fish. The longer it stays on the shelf, the less desirable it becomes.
Andre Heller
Image
When you have mastered numbers, you will in fact no longer be reading numbers, any more than you read words when reading books You will be reading meanings.
W. E. B. Du Bois
Image
What is admirable about the fantastic is that there is no longer anything fantastic: there is only the real.
Andre Breton
Image
My favourite thing is to be somebody else, no longer be me.
Andie MacDowell
Image
My poetry doesn't change from place to place - it changes with the years. It's very important to be one's age. You get ideas you have to turn down - 'I'm sorry, no longer' 'I'm sorry, not yet.
W. H. Auden
Image
Why doesn't the United States take over the monarchy and unite with England? England does have important assets. Naturally the longer you wait, the more they will dwindle. At least you could use it for a summer resort instead of Maine.
W. H. Auden
Image
To succeed [,] consider what is as though it were past, deem yourself inevitable and take credit for it. If you no longer believe, enlarge the temple.
W. S. Merwin
Image
A trite word is an overused word which has lost its identity like an old coat in a second-hand shop. The familiar grows dull and we no longer see, hear, or taste it.
Anais Nin
Image
Podiobooks rules. It's still the best way I know to find an audience for longer works in any genre.
Nathan Lowell
Image
In fact, marijuana lowers your stress level and lowers your body temperature. It actually seems that people live longer if they use it. If you substitute marijuana for tobacco and alcohol, you'll add 24 years to your life.
