“"Distilling is beautiful. First of all, because it is a slow, philosophic, and silent occupation, which keeps you busy but gives you time to think of other things. Then, because it involves a metamorphosis from liquid to vapor, and from this once again to liquid; but in this double journey, up and down, purity is attained, an ambiguous and fascinating condition, which starts with chemistry and goes very far."
Periodic table is a collection of short stories inspired by the elements. Tragic, funny, romantic, regretful ... for me it brings back memories of college. i'd recommend it to my chem friends and to those with kindred chem stories to share. :)”
