Pàgina 42 - Every body continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line, except in so far as it may be compelled by impressed forces to change that state.
Pàgina 6 - When a straight line standing on another straight line makes the adjacent angles equal to one another, each of the angles is called a right angle ; and the straight line which stands on the other is called a perpendicular to it.
Pàgina 52 - To every action there is always an equal and contrary reaction ; or the mutual actions of any two bodies are always equal and oppositely directed.
Pàgina 44 - Change of motion is proportional to the impressed force, and takes place in the direction of the straight line in which the force acts.
Pàgina 8 - A diameter of a circle is a straight line drawn through the centre, and terminated both ways by the circumference.
Pàgina 321 - None of the processes of nature, since the time when nature began, have produced the slightest difference in the properties of any molecule.

The consumption of seven bushels of coal would suffice to raise it to the place where it hangs.
Pàgina 321 - No theory of evolution can be formed to account for the similarity of molecules, for evolution necessarily implies continuous change, and the molecule is incapable of growth or decay, of generation or destruction. None of the processes of Nature, since the time when Nature began, have produced the slightest difference in the properties of any molecule.

Pàgina 219 - Whatever change of weather suddenly follows a change in the barometer, may be expected to last but a short time. Thus, if fair weather follow immediately the rise of the mercury, there will be...
