It is common experience that watches run down, bouncing balls stop bouncing, and even the most perfectly designed and crafted engine will eventually cease operating. This universal tendency toward stasis is the essence of the second law of thermodynamics.

Abstract The last thing Newton would have wished to be known as was a revolutionary. He was not to know, nor could he have guessed, that his second law of motion would help to change the intellectual atmosphere of Europe.

Abstract We showed that the integral is independent of the path of integration provided the process is quasistatic and we found that the entropy has some interesting properties: It is useful for representing adiabatic quasistatic processes, S being constant.

Life and the Second Law of Thermodynamics
Nature, 1946WHETHER life processes obey the second law of thermodynamics or if life finds a way of evading the otherwise universal dissipation of energy has been something of a puzzle for a century. Kelvin left the matter open in his formulation of the Second Law, by expressly excluding the operations of ‘animate agencies’.
