• There is one experiment which I always like to try, because it proves something whichever way it goes. A solution of iodine in water is shaken with bone-black, filtered and tested with starch paste. If the colorless solution does not turn the starch blue, the experiment shows how completely charcoal extracts iodine from aqueous solution. If the starch turns blue, the experiment shows that the solution, though apparently colorless, still contains iodine which can be detected by means of a sensitive starch test.

• Americans are desperately, here on the West Coast, buying up and hoarding iodine pills... Isn't it great that in a land that is divided between conservative morons and liberal pussies, somehow we have managed to find a way to pull together and behave like moronic pussies?

• Me llamaron a filas en la guerra y me enviaron a un hospital. Vendaba heridas, aplicaba yodo, hacía enemas, transfusiones de sangre. Si el médico ordenaba: "¡Brecht, amputa una pierna!", yo respondía: "¡Por supuesto, Excelencia!", y cortaba la pierna. Si me decían: "¡Realice una trepanación!". abría el cráneo del hombre y jugaba con sus sesos. Vi cómo curaban a los heridos para llevarlos al frente lo antes posible.

• Auri took it, and peered inside the small leather sack. “Why this is lovely, Kvothe. What lives in the salt?” Trace minerals, I thought. Chromium, bassal, malium, iodine . . . everything your body needs but probably can’t get from apples and bread and whatever you manage to scrounge up when I can’t find you. “The dreams of fish,” I said. “And sailor’s songs.

• Si inhalas una millonésima parte de un gramo de plutonio, las células circundantes reciben una dosis muy, muy alta. La mayoría mueren dentro de esa zona, porque es un emisor alfa. Las células de la periferia siguen siendo viables. Mutan y los genes reguladores se dañan. Años más tarde, esa persona desarrolla cáncer. Lo mismo ocurre con el yodo radiactivo, que afecta a la tiroides; el cesio 137, que afecta al cerebro y los músculos; el estroncio 90, que afecta a los huesos y provoca cáncer óseo y leucemia.

• ...it would be a simple way of solving the goiter problem. And in addition to that it would be the biggest thing in a medical proposition to be carried out in the state of Michigan, and Michigan is a large place. And as I thought of the thing the more convinced I became that this oughtn't to be a personal thing, This ought to be something done by the Michigan State Medical Society as a body. Recommending the addition of a trace of iodine to table salt.

• I carefully lay out the provisions. One thin black sleeping bag that reflects body heat. A pack of crackers. A pack of dried beef strips. A bottle of iodine. A box of wooden matches. A small coil of wire. A pair of sunglasses. And a half-gallon plastic bottle with a cap for carrying water that's bone dry. No water. How hard would it have been for them to fill up the bottle?
