Famous quotes containing the words laws of, laws and/or motion:

    “The improvements of ages have had but little influence on the essential laws of man’s existence: as our skeletons, probably, are not to be distinguished from those of our ancestors.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The improvements of ages have had but little influence on the essential laws of man’s existence: as our skeletons, probably, are not to be distinguished from those of our ancestors.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Two children, all alone and no one by,
    Holding their tattered frocks, thro’an airy maze
    Of motion lightly threaded with nimble feet
    Dance sedately; face to face they gaze,
    Their eyes shining, grave with a perfect pleasure.”
    —Laurence Binyon (1869–1943)
