In fact we can use Newton's prism to break white light into many colors and study the various wavelengths of each color. You cannot measure darkness.

Darkness is a term used by man to describe what happens when there is no light present.
Albert EinsteinThere is no question that the US market is the hardest to break into.

Richard BachWhat surprises me is-even though discrimination against women and racial discrimination still exist, they have improved a lot, especially among artists.

"Is it what you want?" Whether he intended it to be or not, this was the final question, the last Truth. If I said what I really thought, I was opening myself up for a hurt bigger than I could even imagine. I didn't have it in me.

We must away! We ride before the break of day!

The gap is a standing reproach to Americans; but it marks them off as a special and singularly admirable community among the world's peoples.
