Water is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula H2O. It is a transparent, tasteless, odorless, and nearly colorless chemical substance. It is the main constituent of Earth's streams, lakes, and oceans. Water is also the fluid of all known living organisms, in which it acts as a solvent. Water, being a polar molecule, undergoes strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding which is a large contributor to its physical and chemical properties. It is vital for all known forms of life, despite not providing food energy or being an organic micronutrient. Due to its presence in all organisms, its chemical stability, its worldwide abundance, and its strong polarity relative to its small molecular size, water is often referred to as the "universal solvent".
“The challenge of securing safe and plentiful water for all is one of the most daunting challenges faced by the world today. . . . Too often, where we need water we find guns.”
“[Water] is one of the most investigated of all chemicals, but it is still the least understood ... nothing is as complex in its behaviour.”
“The water of Zamzam is a cure for whatever (ailment) it is taken for.”
“Verily, in the beginning this [world] was water.”
“Counsel in the heart of a man is as deep waters, but the man of discernment is one that will draw it up.”
“Est in aqua dulci non invidiosa voluptas.”
