atom quotes

• I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days trying to prolong them. I shall use my time. (Jack London) [dust/atom/waste/time]
• The unleashed power of the atom has changed everything save our modes of thinking and we thus drift toward unparalleled catastrophe. (Albert Einstein) [power/atom/thinking]
• I would rather be ashes than dust. I would rather that my spark would burn out in a brilliant blaze than be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. (Jack London) [dust/atom]
• The present reeks of mediocrity and the atom bomb. (Rene Magritte) [present/atom]

• I was gearing up for it. I took some singing lessons. And I opened my mouth, and Atom promptly said, 'That's not going to happen. We love your voice, but maybe we could use some of your English wit.' He had doubts about it from way back. For starters, we weren't going to be doing the Italian-American crooning thing. (Colin Firth) [atom/love/english/thing]
