The magnitude of the atomic weight determines the character of the element, just as the magnitude of the molecule determines the character of a compound body.

- Dmitri Mendeleev

After leaving ImageMovers, I sold two pitches to Fox Atomic, which I then wrote for them.

- Lauren Miller

Fatigue is what we experience, but it is what a match is to an atomic bomb.

- Laura Hillenbrand

I always go back to Harry Truman: Should we drop an atomic bomb to save 100,000 lives? That's a hell of a decision to make. Did he make that decision by himself? No, he had advisers.

- Lee Iacocca

Thus at the beginning of 1906 it seemed to be established that the emitters of the spectral series of chemical elements are their positive atomic ions.

- Johannes Stark

We can in fact first place the beam of rays of moving positive atomic ions in a plane perpendicular to the axis in which we see the spectral lines emitted by them.

- Johannes Stark

Most people use twenty verbs to describe everything from a run in their stocking to the explosion of an atomic bomb.

- Janet Fitch

I did not want to be labelled 'the designer who survived the atomic bomb,' and therefore I have always avoided questions about Hiroshima.

- Issey Miyake

The use of the atomic bomb, with its indiscriminate killing of women and children, revolts my soul.

- Herbert Hoover

The only use for an atomic bomb is to keep somebody else from using one.

- George Wald

The release of atomic energy has not created a new problem. It has merely made more urgent the necessity of solving an existing one.

- Albert Einstein

Certain characteristic properties of elements can be foretold from their atomic weights.

- Dmitri Mendeleev

The elements which are the most widely diffused have small atomic weights.

- Dmitri Mendeleev

The elements, if arranged according to their atomic weights, exhibit an apparent periodicity of properties.

- Dmitri Mendeleev

Elements which are similar as regards their chemical properties have atomic weights which are either of nearly the same value (eg. Pt, Ir, Os) or which increase regularly (eg. K, Ru, Cs).

- Dmitri Mendeleev

Information of fundamental importance to the general problem of atomic structure has resulted from systematic studies of the cosmic radiation carried out by the Wilson cloud-chamber method.

- Carl D. Anderson

I like the name Atomic Kitten. It's so great.

- Bryan Ferry

The Atomic Age is here to stay - but are we?

- Bennett Cerf

The real abhorrent consequence of the invention of atomic bombs is the fact that we still have them and they're spreading.

- Barry Commoner

I do not believe that civilization will be wiped out in a war fought with the atomic bomb. Perhaps two-thirds of the people of the earth will be killed.

- Albert Einstein
