For the understanding of the indestructibility of our nature coincides with that of the identity of the macrocosm and the microcosm.
Nay, I seriously assert that even this permanence of matter affords evidence of the indestructibility of our true nature, though only as in an image or simile, or, rather, only as in outline.
Accordingly we would be led here to the conception of an indestructibility which would yet be no continuance.
The theory of the conservation of energy was now supplemented by that of the indestructibility of matter (Lavoisier).
No longer 'in seipso totus, teres, atque rotundus' its reputation for inviolability andindestructibility is gone for ever.
On these three doctrines, theindestructibility of matter, the indestructibility of energy, and the existence of the universal ether, rest primarily the explanations of the phenomena of nature.
Along with this fundamental principle, science holds the doctrine of the indestructibility of energy.
Together with the doctrines of the indestructibility of matter and energy, the doctrine of the ether welds and explains all the physical phenomena of the universe.
The philosophy of science, which is the basis of all rational philosophy, rests upon the doctrine of the indestructibility of matter.
The law of the indestructibility and convertibility of energy, is of equal fundamental value with that of the indestructibility of matter.
It is not quite so well understood that the doctrine of the indestructibility of energy lies also at the foundation of "Mormon" theology, and was taught by Joseph Smith.
The indestructibility of Force no more interferes with the theory of Causation than the indestructibility of Matter, meaning by matter the element of resistance in the sensible world.
Whewell ascribes a more thorough character of necessity and self-evidence, than that of the indestructibility of matter.
In his teaching, too, the doctrine of the indestructibility of matter is clear and firm; [600] and the denial of anthropomorphic deity is explicit.
The destructibility or indestructibility of the ether cannot be considered from the same standpoint as that for matter, either ideally or really.
Written, in fact, on the hypothesis of the indestructibility of caloric, it was to be expected that this memoir should be condemned in the name of the new doctrine, that is, of the principle recently brought to light.
I abide in the consciousness of the Indestructibilityand Omniscience of Being.
The physicists on their part had realized this same truth and finally there came the definite enunciation of the absolute indestructibility of matter.
Aquinas and the indestructibility of matter and the conservation of energy.
In this sentence, then, Thomas of Aquin was proclaiming the {39} doctrine of the indestructibility of matter.
In recent times the discovery of the indestructibility of matter, far from lessening the skeptical elements in this problem as might have been anticipated, has rather emphasized them.
When St. Thomas used the aphorism "Nothing at all will ever be reduced to nothingness" there was another signification that he attached to the words quite as clearly as that by which they expressed the indestructibility of matter.
He was teaching the conservation of energy as well as the indestructibility of matter.
In this sentence, then, Thomas of Aquin was proclaiming the doctrine of the indestructibility of matter.
The physicists on their part had realized this same truth, and finally there came the definite enunciation of the absolute indestructibility of matter.
For instance, they occupied themselves with the question of the indestructibility of matter, and also, strange as it may seem, with the conservation of energy.
When St. Thomas used the aphorism, "Nothing at all will ever be reduced to nothingness," there was another signification that he attached to the words quite as clearly as that by which they expressed the indestructibility of matter.
Thus the equation expressing the law of the indestructibility of matter acquires a new and still more important signification.
The quantity, therefore, of each element remains constant in all chemical changes: a fact which may be deduced as a consequence of the law of the indestructibility of matter, and of the conception of elements themselves.
The law of the indestructibility of matter endows all chemical investigations with exactitude, as, on its basis, an equation may be formed for every chemical reaction.
The chemist, in applying the law of the indestructibility of matter, and in making use of the chemical balance, must never lose sight of any one of the re-acting or resultant substances.
Mariotte and other savants of the seventeenth century already suspected the existence of the law of the indestructibility of matter, but they made no efforts to express it or to apply it to the requirements of science.
All the progress made by chemistry during the end of the last, and in the present, century is entirely and immovably founded on the law of the indestructibility of matter.
In other words, he was teaching the indestructibility of matter even more emphatically than we do.
But this ubiquitous correlation among general laws, considered as the cause of cosmic harmony, itself requires some explanatory cause such as the persistence of force and the indestructibility of matter cannot conceivably be made to supply.
But nowadays the indestructibility of matter and the eternity of material forces is a matter of fact accepted by natural science.
The great thinkers demonstrated the indestructibility of force and matter--demonstrated that the indestructible could not have been created.
He did not believe in the uniformity of nature; he had no conception of cause and effect, of the indestructibility of force.
The fixity of the elements in chemistry, the undulatory movement of light, the stability of the planetary orbits, the indestructibility of the atom, are all abstractions which have been subjected to the reforming processes of new thought.
The principles of indestructibility or conservation of matter and energy, flow from the preceding ones, and are exhibited in mental actions as well as in physical ones.
He had implicit confidence in the indestructibility of moral force, and he "bated no jot of heart or hope.
