It Is Conceivable That Animal Life Might Have The Attribute Of Using The Heat Of Surrounding Matter, At Its Natural Temperature, As A Source Of Energy For Mechanical Effect . . . .the Influence Of Animal Or Vegetable Life On Matter Is Infinitely Beyond The Range Of Any Scientific Enquiry Hitherto Entered On. Its Power Of Directing The Motions Of Moving Particles, In The Demonstrated Daily Miracle Of Our Human Free-will, And In The Growth Of Generation After Generation Of Plants From A Single Seed, Are Infinitely Different From Any Possible Result Of The Fortuitous Concurrence Of Atoms.

In Science There Is Only Physics; All The Rest Is Stamp Collecting.

Simplification Of Modes Of Proof Is Not Merely An Indication Of Advance In Our Knowledge Of A Subject, But Is Also The Surest Guarantee Of Readiness For Farther Progress.

Although Mechanical Energy Is Indestructible, There Is A Universal Tendency To Its Dissipation, Which Produces Throughout The System A Gradual Augmentation And Diffusion Of Heat, Cessation Of Motion And Exhaustion Of The Potential Energy Of The Material Universe
