Quotation

The smallest atom of matter on the earth acts directly on the smallest atom of matter in the sun, though they are 95,000,000 of miles apart; further, atoms which, to our knowledge, are at least nineteen times that distance, and indeed, in cometary masses, far more, are in the similar way tied together by the lines of force extending from and belonging to each.   Google-1   Google-2
