Thomas Otway - What mighty ills have not been done by...

What mighty ills have not been done by woman!
Who was 't betrayed the Capitol?-A woman!
Who lost Mark Antony the world?-A woman!
Who was the cause of a long ten years' war,
And laid at last old Troy in ashes?-Woman!
Destructive, damnable, deceitful woman! (Thomas Otway)

What mighty ills have not been done by woman! Who was 't betrayed the Capitol?-A woman! Who lost Mark Antony the world?-A woman! Who was the cause of a long ten years' war, And laid at last old Troy in ashes?-Woman! Destructive, damnable, deceitful woman!

By an incredible coincidence, Gamow and Edward Condon, who had discovered simultaneously and independently the explanation of radioactivity (one in Russia, the other in this country), came to spend the the last ten years of their lives within a hundred yards of each other in Boulder.

It appeared that most of the men and boys had died of starvation; they had not been executed. But the manner of death seemed unimportant. Murder had been done at Buchenwald. God alone knows how many men and boys have died there during the last twelve years.
