Quotes by Velocity Now, the velocity of wave propagation can be seen, without the aid of any mathematical analysis, to depend on the elasticity of the medium and its density; for we can see that if a medium is highly elastic the disturbance would be propagated at a great speed. Albert A. Michelson density velocity would-be My sailing system set sail, make it fast, no thoughts of energy or velocity, loll back, let boat drift. Albert Einstein velocity sailing energy If the 1980s were about quality and the 1990s were about reengineering, then the 2000s will be about velocity. Bill Gates velocity quality change Arc, amplitude, and curvature sustain a similar relation to each other as time, motion, and velocity, or as volume, mass, and density. Carl Friedrich Gauss density velocity mass Whenever the work is itself light, it becomes necessary, in order to economize time, to increase the velocity. Charles Babbage velocity light order The soundest argument will produce no more conviction in an empty head than the most superficial declamation; as a feather and a guinea fall with equal velocity in a vacuum. Charles Caleb Colton velocity vacuums fall Here I am Rock You Like a Hurricane. Dave Eggers velocity rocks here-i-am Morality—like velocity—is relative. The determination of it depends on what the objects around you are doing. All one can do is measure one's position in relation to them; never can one measure one's velocity or morality in terms of absolutes. David Gerrold velocity morality determination He had extracted himself from the Cambridge one-way system by the usual method, which involved going round and round it faster and faster until he achieved a sort of escape velocity and flew off at a tangent in a random direction, which he was now trying to identify and correct for. Douglas Adams velocity usual trying The great spirals, with their enormous radial velocities and insensible proper motions, apparently lie outside our Solar system. Edwin Powell Hubble astronomy velocity lying We are always getting away from the present moment. Our mental existence, which are immaterial and have no dimensions, are passing along the Time-Dimension with a uniform velocity from the cradle to the grave. H. G. Wells velocity uniforms time The problem of defining exactly what is meant by the signal velocity, which cropped up as long ago as 1907, has not been solved. Hans Christian von Baeyer velocity long-ago defining I came to realize in my late 20s that my velocity is not going to grow so I had to learn to utilize what I had. Jamie Moyer velocity late realizing Maybe in the minor leagues. With my velocity, they would pick it up and say, 'Hey, you dropped something.' Jay Feaster velocity hey league Market leadership can translate directly to higher revenue, higher profitability, greater capital velocity and correspondingly stronger returns on invested capital. Jeff Bezos velocity stronger return How are you managing the velocity of change? Jim Blasingame velocity I use high velocity to keep hitters off balance. Justin Verlander velocity balance use The velocity and volume on the Web are so great that nothing is forgotten and nothing is remembered. Leon Wieseltier velocity volume forgotten Nonviolence, when it becomes active, travels with extraordinary velocity, and then it becomes a miracle. Mahatma Gandhi velocity active miracle Madness is not what it seems. Time stops. All my life I've been obsessed with time, its motion and velocity, the way it works you over, the way it rushes you onward, a pebble turning in a brook. I've always been obsessed with where I'd go, and what I'd do, and how I would live. I've always harbored a desperate hope that I would make something of myself. Not then. Time stopped seeming so much like the thing that would transform me into something worthwhile and began to be inseparable from death. I spent my time merely waiting. Marya Hornbacher pebbles velocity waiting 12»
