From harmony, from heavenly harmony, this universal frame began: when nature underneath a heap of jarring atoms lay, and could not heave her head, the tuneful voice was heard from high, 'arise, ye more than dead!' then cold, and hot, and moist, and dry, in order to their stations leap, and music's power obey. from harmony, from heavenly harmony, this universal frame began: from harmony to harmony through all the compass of the notes it ran, the diapason closing full in man.

The water of the fountain ran, the swift river ran, the day ran into evening, so much life in the city ran into death according to rule, time and tide waited for no man, the rats were sleeping close together in their dark holes again, the fancy ball was lighted up at supper, all things ran their course.

From the results so far obtained it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that the long-range atoms arising from collision of alpha particles with nitrogen are not nitrogen atoms but probably atoms of hydrogen, or atoms of mass 2. if this be the case, we must conclude that the nitrogen atom is disintegrated under the intense forces developed in a close collision with a swift alpha particle, and that the hydrogen atom which is liberated formed a constituent part of the nitrogen nucleus.

There was a man that hated his footprints and his shadow, so one day he thought that if he ran fast enough, his footprints and shadow would not be able to follow him and then he never ever had to look at them again. he ran and he ran as fast as he could, but the shadow and the footprints had no problems keeping up to him. and he ran even faster and all of a sudden he fell dead to the ground. but if he been standing still there hadn't been any footprints and if he had been resting under a tree his shadow had been swallowed of the trees shadow.

He ran as he'd never run before, with neither hope nor despair. he ran because the world was divided into opposites and his side had already been chosen for him, his only choice being whether or not to play his part with heart and courage. he ran because fate had placed him in a position of responsibility and he had accepted the burden. he ran because his self-respect required it. he ran because he loved his friends and this was the only thing he could do to end the madness that was killing and maiming them.
