About This Quote
Some piously record 'In the beginning God', but I say 'In the beginning hydrogen.' The ancient Greek chemist, Democritus, was one of the first to identify hydrogen as the first element in the universe. He observed that water is composed of two parts oxygen and one part hydrogen. This basic formula has been applied to many other physical and chemical phenomena since then.
