Famous quotes containing the words significant, atomic and/or physicists:

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    One has to look out for engineers—they begin with sewing machines and end up with the atomic bomb.
    Marcel Pagnol (1895–1974)

    It would be a poor thing to be an atom in a universe without physicists, and physicists are made of atoms. A physicist is an atom’s way of knowing about atoms.
    George Wald (b. 1906)
