Passive Gravitational Mass

Famous quotes containing the words passive and/or mass:

    She has taken her passive pigeon poor,
    She has buried him down and down.
    He never shall sally to Sally
    Nor soil any roofs of the town.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    While this America settles in the mould of its vulgarity, heavily
    thickening to empire,
    And protest, only a bubble in the molten mass, pops and sighs out,
    and the mass hardens,
    Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)
