• His hair has the long jesuschrist look. He is wearing the costume clothes.

• That’s the problem with all of this. No matter how hard I try, I can’t make it perfect. I can’t keep it in a bottle, can’t ignore reality. Chemicals are involved, the kind scientists try to synthesize and put into pill form, and they’re making tremendous advances every day. They’re winning the war against love. It’s probably inevitable now. There are only two ways to see the world: either no one and nothing is connected to anything, or we are all a random series of carbon molecules connected to each other. Tell me if there’s room for love in either of those scenarios.

• In a nation committed to better living through chemistry - where Viagra-enabled men pursue silicone-contoured women - the national pastime has a problem of illicit chemical enhancement. Steroids threaten the health of the 5 percent to 7 percent of players proved, by a mild regime of scheduled tests, to be using them. Steroids also endanger emulative young people. Further, steroids subvert what baseball is selling - fair competition. And they strike at the pleasure of engagement with America's team sport with the longest history.

• One person looks around and sees a universe created by a god who watches over its long unfurling, marking the fall of sparrows and listening to the prayers of his finest creation. Another person believes that life, in all its baroque complexity, is a chemical aberration that will briefly decorate the surface of a ball of rock spinning somewhere among a billion galaxies. And the two of them could talk for hours and find no great difference between one another, for neither set of beliefs make us kinder or wiser.

• Y, como consecuencia de la presión que hemos ejercido en las dos últimas semanas, tenemos a Siria -por primera vez- reconociendo que tiene armas químicas, aceptando unirse a la convención que prohíbe el uso de armas químicas, y a los rusos -sus principales patrocinadores- diciendo que presionarán a Siria para que saque todas sus armas químicas. La distancia que hemos recorrido en este par de semanas es notable.

• The steady states of the fluid matrix of the body are commonly preserved by physiological reactions, i.e., by more complicated processes than are involved in simple physico-chemical equilibria. Special designations, therefore, are appropriate:—“homeostasis” to designate stability of the organism; “homeostatic conditions,” to indicate details of the stability; and “homeostatic reactions,” to signify means for maintaining stability.

• The chemical compounds are comparable to a system of planets in that the atoms are held together by chemical affinity. They may be more or less numerous, simple or complex in composition, and in the constitution of the materials, they play the same role as Mars and Venus do in our planetary system, or the compound members such as our earth with its moon, or Jupiter with its satellites... If in such a system a particle is replaced by one of different character, the equilibrium can persist, and then the new compound will exhibit properties similar to those shown by the original substance.

• La visión que veo no es sólo un movimiento de democracia directa, de autodeterminación y codeterminación y de no violencia, sino un movimiento en el que la política significa el poder de amar y el poder de sentirse unidos en la nave espacial Tierra... En un mundo que se debate en la violencia y la deshonestidad, el desarrollo ulterior de la no violencia -no sólo como filosofía, sino como forma de vida, como fuerza en las calles, en las plazas de los mercados, fuera de las bases de misiles, dentro de las plantas químicas y dentro de la industria bélica- se convierte en una de las prioridades más urgentes.
