More From Wilhelm Ostwald

In the first quarter of the nineteenth century the experimental proof for the interdependence of the composition and properties of chemical compounds resulted in the theory that they are mutually related, so that like composition governs like properties, and conversely.

Water, the hub of life. water is its mater and matrix, mother and medium. water is the most extraordinary substance! practically all its properties are anomolous, which enabled life to use it as building material for its machinery. life is water dancing to the tune of solids.

Life processes take place in an aqueous medium. all organisms are composed mostly of water, whether they dwell in the oceans, lakes, and rivers, or on the land. because the physical and chemical properties of water are well suited to the requirements of life, it is no accident that life is a water-based phenomenon.

Composition is a side issue. its role in my selection of photographs is a negative one at best. by which i mean that the fascination of a photograph is not in its eccentric composition but in what it has to say: its information content. and, on the other hand, composition always also has its own fortuitous rightness.

In [aristotle's] formal logic, thought is organized in a manner very different from that of the platonic dialogue. in this formal logic, thought is indifferent toward its objects. whether they are mental or physical, whether they pertain to society or to nature, they become subject to the same general laws of organization, calculation, and conclusion - but they do so as fungible signs or symbols, in abstraction from their particular "substance." this general quality (quantitative quality) is the precondition of law and order - in logic as well as in society - the price of universal control.

What he would say, he cannot say to this woman whose openness is like a wound, whose youth is not mortal yet. he cannot alter what he loves most in her, her lack of compromise, where the romance of the poems she loves still sits with ease in the real world. outside these qualities he knows there is no order in the world.

Fighting Order Sometimes
Still we did not expect to be without rubs and difficulties; and we have had them. first the detention of western posts: then the coalition of pilnitz, outlawing our commerce with france, and the british enforcement of the outlawry. in your day french depredations; in mine english, and the berlin and milan decrees: now the english orders of council, and the piracies they authorize. when these shall be over, it will the impressment of our seamen, or something else; and so we have gone on, and so we shall go on, puzzled and prospering beyond example in the history of man.
