Maxwell Faraday Equation

Famous quotes containing the words maxwell and/or equation:

“Gin a body meet a body
Flyin’ through the air,
Gin a body hit a body,
Will it fly? and where?”
—James Clerk Maxwell (1831–1879)

“Jail sentences have many functions, but one is surely to send a message about what our society abhors and what it values. This week, the equation was twofold: female infidelity twice as bad as male abuse, the life of a woman half as valuable as that of a man. The killing of the woman taken in adultery has a long history and survives today in many cultures. One of those is our own.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
