Politics
I can't help feeling wary when I hear anything said about the masses. First you take their faces from 'em by calling 'em the masses and then you accuse 'em of not having any faces.
J. B. Priestley in Saturn Over the Water (1961) ch. 2.
Politics
Man is by nature a political animal.
Aristotle, Politics, chapter 2 (Bekker I.1253a2).
Politics
Who, born for the universe, narrow'd his mind,
And to party gave up what was meant for mankind.
Oliver Goldsmith, Retaliation (1774), line 31.
Solar power is potentially an almost limitless resource. The sun provides enough energy in one minute to supply the world’s energy needs for one year. But turning this resource into affordable electricity is difficult – silicon-based solar cells still suffer from a decline in their effectiveness over time. Through her ERC-funded SOLARX project, Professor Hele Savin, of Aalto University in Finland, is investigating a possible route to solving this problem.
