absolute time” — of a time independent of change. This absolute time can be measured by comparison with no motion; it has therefore neither a practical nor a scientific value; and no one is justified...

If you don’t want a man unhappy politically, don’t give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none. Let him forget there is such a thing...

God who gave Animals self motion beyond our understanding is without doubt able to implant other principles of motion in bodies [which] we may understand as little. Some would readily grant this may be a...

Maybe every once in a while we can take a break from doing everything faster and quicker to reflect on who we are and where we are going.

…I looked out the window at walls of moonlit cloud rising beside us as though we we were at the bottom of some, gray and ivory canyon, hung above the moon-smashed sea…But, with whatever hindsight,...

The earth in its rapid motion round the sun possesses a degree of living force so vast that, if turned into the equivalent of heat, its temperature would be rendered at least one thousand times...

… the irregularities of the motion of Uranus…in order to find out whether they may be attributed to the action of an undiscovered planet beyond it.[John Couch Adams on how he began to discover Neptune.]

Progress and motion are not synonymous.

But we have reason to think that the annihilation of work is no less a physical impossibility than its creation, that is, than perpetual motion.

The true measure of a man is not what he dreams, but what he aspires to be; a dream is nothing without action. Whether one fails or succeeds is irrelevant; all that matters is that...

For action, whatever its immediate purpose, also implies relief at doing something, anything, and the joy of exertion. This is the optimism that is inherent in, and proper and indispensable to action, for without it...

All motion is relative. Perhaps it is you who have moved away-by standing still

Life is in infinite motion; at the same time it is motionless.

I made a circular motion with my finger around my temple to indicate I thought this guy was crazy, forgetting that there was no one in the room to see this circular motion except him....

The way he moves-a singular motion with such ease-put me in awe. He takes down one, two and then three without even bending his back. Knocking down a man so gracefully was nothing I had...

We are like some particle in motion always moving and meeting other particle.

One of the curious things about our educational system, I would note, is that the better trained you are in a discipline, the less used to dialectical method you’re likely to be. In fact, young...

All around us, Karachi kept moving

Poems are a hotline to our hearts, and we forget this emotional power at our peril

courage in motion” toward your dreams.

So many of the properties of matter, especially when in the gaseous form, can be deduced from the hypothesis that their minute parts are in rapid motion, the velocity increasing with the temperature, that the...

The main facts in science are five: time, space, motion, light and gravity.

Your mind, your motion and your expression is an animation to marvel and to praise.

I didnt pay atteniton to times or distance, instead focusing on how it felt just to be in motion, knowing it wasn’t about the finish line but how I got there that mattered.

Every day, you reinvent yourself. You’re always in motion. But you decide every day: forward or backward.

The universe is created for motion.

I suppose that every wanderer started in a garden somewhere. So few of us are born into motion.

We are all glorified motion sensors.Some things only become visible to us when they undergo change.We take for granted all the constant, fixed things, and eventually stop paying any attention to them. At the same...

When your action is gone, and all that’s left is motionlessness, I’ll be there, whistling.

Always in motion are the moments of time.

Unlike clocks, hours have no reverse motion..

We ought to regard the present state of the universe as the effect of its antecedent state and as the cause of the state that is to follow. An intelligence knowing all the forces acting...

This picture has a lot of motion and features one person being forcibly removed. Reminds me of the commotion of my heart. Love is a lot like a crime scene.

When it comes to human success, I’m pretty sure the object doesn’t need a net external force to move it.

Absolute is a game with only one player where Absolute forgets itself so it would have a reason to fulfill the motion while returning.

Evolution is an integration of matter and concomitant dissipation of motion during which the matter passes from an indefinite incoherent homogeneity to a definite coherent heterogeneity, and during which the retained motion undergoes a parallel...

Newton supposed that the case of the planet was similar to that of [a ball spun around on the end of an elastic string]; that it was always pulled in the direction of the sun,...

There are two kinds of people. One kind, you can just tell by looking at them at what point they congealed into their final selves. It might be a very nice self, but you know...
