Substances Quotes from:
-
Age Quotes
It has been possible to trace historically back to a very early age the taxes which were imposed on medicines, spices and similar substances in German towns. Thus, for instance, one finds that in the year 1500, thirteen, in 1540, thirty-eight, and in 1708, already one hundred and twenty vegetable oils are mentioned.

Affect Quotes
For thousands of years, long before there was such a thing as a science of chemistry, people were fascinated by plants, because they knew that plants contained substances that could affect people. Coffee will keep you awake. Tobacco contains something that will calm your nerves. Foxglove contains an extract that'll affect your heart.

Caused Quotes
In the year 1921, I was successful for the first time in obtaining certain proof that by stimulation of the nerves in a frog's heart, substances were released which to some extent passed into the heart fluid and, when transferred with this into a test heart, caused it to react in exactly the same way as the stimulation of the corresponding nerves.

Among Quotes
In bitter almond oil, like in a great number of other substances that previously had been counted among the 'aromatic compounds' on behalf of their strong smell, a derivative of benzene is present. The special properties of benzene and its derivatives are caused by the typical arrangement of their carbon atoms.

Discipline Quotes
It is fortunate that molecular synthesis also serves the utilitarian function of producing quantities of rare or novel substances which satisfy human needs, especially with regard to health, and the scientific function of stimulating research and education throughout the whole discipline of chemistry.

Convert Quotes
The problem - the greatest inefficiency of the process - is that you also wind up with a substantial quantity of medium-weight products that are not useful and you are stuck with them. What we are now able to do with our new catalysts is something no one else has done before. We take all these undesirable medium-weight substances and convert them to the useful higher- and lower-weight products.

Assisted Quotes
What was at issue is whether a federal drug law, the controlled Substances Act, gives the Attorney General the power to second guess states' assisted suicide policies. And the court said that the congressional drug law didn't clearly give the Attorney General that authority. That's all it held.

Aware Quotes
What Dick Pound said about a significant percentage, something approaching 30 per cent of our players, taking banned substances is completely without any foundation and remains extraordinarily irresponsible given that he should be aware of the fact that there have been hundreds of tests done on NHL players over the last few years (for international competitions) with no positive results other than this one.
-
Amount Quotes
I've always been fascinated with being able to detect a minuscule amount of a contaminant in a complex matrix, the proverbial needle in a haystack. With LC-MS/MS technology we can detect substances that were previously very difficult or impossible to analyze. It is comforting to be able to tell people with certainty that our food has very few residues and that the ones we find are at very low levels.

Bill Quotes
As I understand what the bill says is that the federal government has the right to regulate controlled substances. And to the extent that controlled substances relieve pain, that's fine. But to the extent that controlled substances take a person's life, it's not fine and I would sign that bill.

Appreciate Quotes
This is an important step to reaching our goal of ridding our sport of performance-enhancing substances and should restore the integrity of and public confidence in our great game. I appreciate the effort put forward by the players' association and our players in reaching this new agreement.

Adverse Quotes
This is another study among several recently released, which shows that the common wisdom that 'more is better' is clearly not the case. Vitamins are nutrients required by the body in minute quantities for normal physiology, and we assume that if a little is good, more must be better, ... Hopefully, this will encourage patients and their physicians to take a good look at all the substances and medications that are being taken, and assess the potential for adverse reactions - even for naturally occurring substances which are assumed to be safe.

Associated Quotes
This is the largest civil administrative penalty EPA has ever obtained under any environmental statue. Not by a little, by a lot. EPA takes violations of toxic substances laws seriously and is committed to enforcing those laws. This settlement sends a strong message that companies are responsible for promptly informing EPA about risk information associated with their chemicals.

Among Quotes
In old times, and also in our time among the Indian tribes, psychedelic substances were considered sacred and they were used with the right attitude and in a ritual and spiritual context. And what a difference if we compare it with the careless and irresponsible use of LSD in the streets and in the discotheques of New York City and everywhere in the West. It is a tragic misunderstanding of the nature and the meaning of these kinds of substances.
