Condensed Matter

Famous quotes containing the words condensed and/or matter:

    There is no doubt that the loftiest written wisdom is either rhymed or in some way musically measured,—is, in form as well as substance, poetry; and a volume which should contain the condensed wisdom of mankind need not have one rhythmless line.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    No matter how ephemeral it is, a novel is something, while despair is nothing.
    Mario Vargas Llosa (b. 1936)
