Jefferson Davis

Every one must understand that, whatever be the evil of slavery, it is not increased by its diffusion. Every one familiar with it knows that it is in proportion to its sparseness that it becomes less objectionable. Wherever there is an immediate connexion between the master and slave, whatever there is of harshness in the system is diminished.

American Leader

William Hague

The world is not going into concentric blocs of power. It is actually going into a diffusion of power with more centres of decision-making than ever in human civilisation. That requires you to place yourself in far more hubs of power than ever before.

British Politician

Herman Kahn

The widespread diffusion of nuclear weapons would make many nations able, and in some cases also create the pressure, to aggravate an on-going crisis, or even touch off a war between two other powers for purposes of their own.

American Scientist

Archibald Hill

In a large mass of muscle deprived of its circulation, the rate at which the recovery process can go on, after severe stimulation, depends on the rate at which oxygen can reach the fibres by diffusion.

English Psychologist

Giordano Bruno

Innumerable spirits and souls, when spread out through the same space, do not interfere with each other such that the diffusion of one would affect the diffusion of an infinity of others.

Italian Philosopher

Richard Cobden

The progress of freedom depends more upon the maintenance of peace, the spread of commerce, and the diffusion of education, than upon the labors of cabinets and foreign offices.

British Businessman

Joseph Stiglitz

To maximise global social welfare, policymakers should strongly encourage the diffusion of knowledge from developed to developing countries.

American Economist

Thomas Piketty

The main force pushing toward reduction in inequality has always been the diffusion of knowledge and the diffusion of education.

French Economist

Henry James Sumner Maine

The ancient codes were doubtless originally suggested by the discovery and diffusion of the art of writing.

English Historian

James Madison

The advancement and diffusion of knowledge is the only guardian of true liberty.

Understand that 'diffusion' can describe the spread of intangible things like ideas.

Non-physical Spread

'Diffusion' often implies a gradual process, not something that happens suddenly.

Not Instantaneous

In science, 'diffusion' refers to automatic particle movement, not requiring energy.

Natural Phenomenon

Particles in 'diffusion' move from areas of high to low concentration, like rolling downhill.

Always Downhill

'Diffusion' in culture often entails mutual influence, blending not just one-way transfer.

Cultural Exchange

'Diffusion' is a key concept in globalization, reflecting cross-border blending of cultures.

In photography, 'diffusion' creates a gentler illumination that reduces harsh contrasts.
