Be it whim or emergency, the modern laboratory is equally at the service of romance, equally ready to gratify mankind with a torpedo or a toy.

Traces of my touch
I've pushed the borders
I left the stations
The trains are equally sad
The passengers equally busy
I've crossed the moonlight
I've swum the seas
The drops are equally wet
The depths are equally low
I've touched the treetops
I've opened the nests
The boughs are equally fragile
The root is equally deep
Nothing has changed
But the traces of my touch

The object of self-love is expressed in the term self; and every appetite of sense, and every particular affection of the heart, are equally interested or disinterested, because the objects of them all are equally self or somewhat else.

No two are alike
Let there be a couple of bulbs
Of the same watts emitting light.
The intensity is not same
If voltage, focus, enclosure
Or background differs. Likewise
Equally talented aren’t
Equally successful in life.

Torpedo Girl
Man battlestations torpedo, man battlestations torpedo
I thought Id go out and take a swim today
It was real hot and I just had to get away
They spotted an unknown sub down in the bay
But I dont care, think Ill go swimmin anyway - yeah
Lets take a dive, torpedo girl, and feel alive, torpedo girl
Lets take a dive, torpedo girl, and feel alive
But I knew when I was in the suds and swimmin around
But then all of a sudden I heard this rumblin sound
I saw this thing that looked a lot like a submarine
With a pretty girl on the bridge, could this be a dream?
I dont know, could be
Lets take a dive, torpedo girl, and feel alive, torpedo girl
Lets take a dive, torpedo girl, and feel alive
Come on, get your feet wet
Torpedo girl, lets take a dive, torpedo girl, and feel alive
(repeats out)

One of the things about equality is not just that you be treated equally to a man, but that you treat yourself equally to the way you treat a man.

Romance Bore Seduction
Hand blessed hand, caressed.
A blushing rose, her face;
Her breast alive;
The elfin nose, a diamond set -
A kiss upon perfection
Bore a rise of pulse
To coach a sultry moan
Across a mellow breath of wine.
He knew; he sensed,
And easing loose a clasp of lace,
Another sign of her relenting:
Wild the play of eyes,
A fuller glide of skin;
He felt the now begin -
Her swell, intention in the sigh.
And so to hedge his move upon the cue -
The cry of deep anticipation,
Waxing all he saw -
Tho' not for us to view -
Arrived, emotion raw.

That's life
Although it took me many years.
I did discover finally
that all my hopes and all my fears
combined together made me, me.
I am the man I am today
because of life experience
There really is no other way you
have to learn in self defence.
You must accept that life’s unfair.
All are not gifted equally
you can observe this everywhere.
But only if you choose to see.
We recognise reluctantly
although we pay lip service to
the idea of equality
It is not and cannot be true.
Fate deals the cards you have to play.
You have no choice but do your best
to move forward- day by day.
To prove your better than the rest.
You grasp each opportunity
To put your talents to good use
but some lack your ability.
What fate decrees they can’t refuse.
All are not gifted equally.
You can’t deny that this is true
if you look at it honestly
and that is all I ask from you.

A hundred years ago, the electric telegraph made possible - indeed, inevitable - the United States of America. The communications satellite will make equally inevitable a United Nations of Earth; let us hope that the transition period will not be equally bloody.

As experimentation becomes more complex, the need for the co-operation in it of technical elements from outside becomes greater and the modern laboratory tends increasingly to resemble the factory and to employ in its service increasing numbers of purely routine workers.
