"From that night on, the electron-up to that time largely the plaything of the scientist-had clearly entered the field as a potent agent in the supplying of man's commercial and industrial needs...

Because all of man's life among his kind is nothing other than a battle to seize the ear of others.”
“I grew up in a family where we weren't allowed to talk about beauty or to put any emphasis on physical appearance.”
