I didn't really escape that gravity until I moved 300 miles south to go to college at 18, where authorship no longer seemed something liable to induce vengeful punishment.
- David Knopfler
#Gravity
One of the main successes of string theory is that it has been able to unify the general theory of relativity, which describes gravity, and quantum mechanics.
- Ashoke Sen
#Gravity
Gravity is more powerful where there's more stuff.
- David Christian
#Gravity
A raised weight can produce work, but in doing so it must necessarily sink from its height, and, when it has fallen as deep as it can fall, its gravity remains as before, but it can no longer do work.
- Hermann von Helmholtz
#Gravity
What the string theorists do is arguably physics. It deals with the physical world. They're attempting to make a consistent theory that explains the interactions we see among particles and gravity as well. That's certainly physics, but it's a kind of physics that is not yet testable.
- Sheldon Lee Glashow
#Gravity
We went through this business of me writing out all the parts for these old songs from Gravity and Speechless and we'd been performing that, but we don't do that any more.
- Fred Frith
#Gravity
When I did my first film, I was in college; I did it as a senior thesis. The original version was 60 minutes. But I developed it and made it almost 90 minutes. In 2007, it premiered in Venice, and I stopped in London to develop a script with my dad that fell apart, and we started 'Gravity.'
- Jonás Cuarón
#Gravity
The plane is simply abstracting the power stored in the wave by a distant gale, and using it to counteract gravity. And if the work be continued long enough, or a multitude of planes be continually drawing on the reservoir of power, the wave must inevitably be flattened.
- Lawrence Hargrave
#Gravity
True Americanism recognizes the enormous gravity of the social and labor problems which confront us.

You might expect gravity would slow it down, but it's just expanding faster and faster.
- Saul Perlmutter
#Gravity
One of the most exciting things about dark energy is that it seems to live at the very nexus of two of our most successful theories of physics: quantum mechanics, which explains the physics of the small, and Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, which explains the physics of the large, including gravity.
- Adam Riess
#Gravity
We're always in the middle of two energies. Gravity is sinking you down; inspiration is pulling you up.
- Mandy Ingber
#Gravity
Nobody escapes age and gravity.
- Harlan Ellison
#Gravity
I can't even touch another conductor's baton. The center of gravity, the feel of the handle, puts me totally off.
- Jeffrey Tate
#Gravity
A snowflake is another beautifully ordered example of what simple, natural meteorological processes can produce. Stars form by gravity, collapsing into spherically ordered structures that can remain in this form only if they release tremendous heat energy into the environment.
- Lawrence M. Krauss
#Gravity
There's a certain gravity in Stokes, due to the situations I have to handle.
- Thayer David

Ethereum is enabling a new form of financing in ICOs that is like a massive gravitational pull - dragging every entrepreneur with a sense for opportunity into its blackhole-level gravity.
- Gil Penchina
#Gravity
Every string theory that's been written down says the speed of light is universal. But other ideas about quantum gravity predict the speed of light has actually increased.
- Lee Smolin
#Gravity
I think if I had to choose, I would rather have gravity instead of zero gravity. It's fun for a while, but I'd rather live on Earth.
- Kevin A. Ford
#Gravity
Gravity Falls' has so much inspiration that comes from 'Twin Peaks,' the idea of Agent Cooper being the one to drive Dipper and Mabel home made me feel like, yeah, they're going to be all right.
- Alex Hirsch
#Gravity
Gravity Falls' is a riddle wrapped in an enigma tucked in a mystery deep-fried in a conundrum slathered in hickory-smoked puzzle sauce.
- Alex Hirsch
#Gravity
I can't know entirely what's at stake beforehand; you find out as you go. I love to take a poem, for instance, that starts with something seemingly frivolous or inconsequential and then grows in gravity until by the end it's something very serious.
- James Tate
#Gravity
When you're wearing jeans, there's a shift in your center of gravity.
- Ray Stevenson
#Gravity
I'm so down to earth, I'm bringing gravity back.
- Tinie Tempah
#Gravity
While you're in space, you grow in height! Without the constant force of gravity on your spine, it stretches out, and you're actually taller when you land. It doesn't last long though.
- Christina Koch
#Gravity
You can get anything online, including things that don't even exist. We've invented our own collective unconscious. The normal rules of time and space don't apply. It's held together by some other force than gravity. It's endless. It's like some unimaginably huge, messy novel that's writing itself both with and without us.
- Stacey D'Erasmo
#Gravity
Consulting the rules of composition before taking a photograph, is like consulting the laws of gravity before going for a walk.
- Edward Weston
#Gravity
I'm six-foot-five, so it's not easy to be like Ferrer with a very low centre of gravity.
- Bernard Tomic
#Gravity
There was a long history of speculation that in quantum gravity, unlike Einstein's classical theory, it might be possible for the topology of spacetime to change.
- Edward Witten
#Gravity
The most uncomfortable thing about going to space is coming home. It's a little strange to get used to gravity again.
- Anne McClain
#Gravity
Gravity pulls our bodily fluids down, like water in a glass goes to the bottom part of a glass. In space, the water doesn't stay in the bottom of the glass. It distributes itself evenly over time throughout the entire volume of the glass.
- Laurel Clark
#Gravity
When you lift off, the pressure is supposed to be maximum. But actually, it was very benign. Very enjoyable. But as soon as the engines cut off and you get to zero gravity, you felt as if you were being pushed off your seat. You feel disoriented. You don't feel aligned with anything. I felt for a few good hours that I was falling.
- Kalpana Chawla
#Gravity
Gravity is one variable in a lot of scientific processes. If you can remove gravity or minimize its effect, then you can understand the other processes that are going on.
- Laurel Clark
#Gravity
The laws of the marketplace are physical laws, and they don't become suspended in a crisis any more than the law of gravity does.
- P. J. O'Rourke
#Gravity
I don't love the fact that gravity is winning as I get older, but there's also a calmness that comes with it, which I'm secretly enjoying.
- Anita Dobson
#Gravity
More than often, what you see, or what we've been able to recreate, has usually been a tampered-with version of what I have in my head, because the original idea has always been bigger. Every time I am in the mode of creating a show, there's always some level of gravity that comes in play, either of a monetary sort, or there's a space issue.
- Tobias Forge
#Gravity
Just like the bones and muscles, the heart is designed to work in one gravity here on Earth, so when you put the heart in space, it operates differently and changes shape.
- Scott Kelly
#Gravity
Small samples in the centrifuge will spin at varying rates to create synthetic gravity, like the gravity of Mars or the gravity of the moon, and measure how the specimens respond within the centrifuge.
- John L. Phillips
#Gravity
Ocean planets might be very common in the universe because water is very common in the low-temperature environments where planets form and evolve. This might be especially true for super-Earths, which can retain volatiles more easily thanks to their larger mass and surface gravity.
- Dimitar Sasselov
#Gravity
I don't think there is much value in trying to use the moon as a base to go to Mars. That's going into one gravity belt and having to get back out of it again. And the moon doesn't have a lot to offer as a resource base.
- Edgar Mitchell
#Gravity
The standard model of particle physics describes forces and particles very well, but when you throw gravity into the equation, it all falls apart. You have to fudge the figures to make it work.
- Lisa Randall
#Gravity
Emphasis was usually put on the horizontal acceleration factor, for the simple reason that ordinary structures have a built-in safety factor for the vertical component; that is, gravity.
- Charles Francis Richter
#Gravity
Whether you can go back in time is held in the grip of the law of quantum gravity.
- Kip Thorne
#Gravity
Curiously, a principle affects your life whether you are aware of it or not. For instance, the principle of gravity was working long before the apple ever fell on Newton's head. But once it did, and he understood it, then we as a society were free to harness this principle to create, among other things, airline flight.
- Andy Andrews
#Gravity
Dark matter is one of the dominant constituents of the universe, which piled up in certain parts of the universe due to gravity, and in those regions, galaxies were formed. It is the unseen thing that holds the universe together.
- Priyamvada Natarajan
#Gravity
You know how you put peanut butter on a piece of bread and the bread falls - it never falls on the bread side down, it always falls peanut butter side down. That's because of gravity.
- J. B. Smoove
#Gravity
As a 22-year Army Veteran who served in Operations Desert Storm and Iraqi Freedom, and as a Civilian Advisor to the Afghan Army in Operation Enduring Freedom, I understand both the gravity of giving the order, and the challenge of carrying it out.
- Allen West
#Gravity
Gravity doesn't lie.
- Brie Bella
#Gravity
Gravity is a law. I respect the law.
- John Pinette
#Gravity
Some of the best scientists can't explain gravity; Neil Degrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, in the end, do they even know?
- Logan Paul
#Gravity
I have been an 'Official' all my life, without the least turn for it. I never could attain a true official manner, which is highly artificial and handles trifles with ludicrously disproportionate gravity.
- William Allingham
#Gravity
The laws in this city are clearly racist. All laws are racist. The law of gravity is racist.
- Marion Barry
#Gravity
You may hate gravity, but gravity doesn't care.
- Clayton M. Christensen
#Gravity
The drums are about gravity. Your hand naturally falls down on the drums as you hit them.
- Tommy Lee
#Gravity
You'd think skiing wouldn't be strenuous - all you have to do, after all, is start at the top and let gravity pull you to the dessert bar in the lodge. But at those elevations, you'll find about as much oxygen as you'll find kindness from your children. It's like spending six hours holding your breath.
- W. Bruce Cameron
#Gravity
The president is under 50 percent approval ratings in all the battleground states. So, you could say that President Obama is defying gravity by still being in a dead heat with Mitt Romney. And one of the reasons that he is, is because the changing face of the electorate are giving him a small boost.
- Mara Liasson
#Gravity
Your arms don't hang by your side in space like they do on Earth because there is no gravity. It feels awkward to have them floating in front of me.
- Scott Kelly
#Gravity
Not believing in force is the same as not believing in gravity.
- Leon Trotsky
#Gravity
I am not aware of any sensible theory of how classical gravity could interact with quantum matter, and I can't imagine how such a theory might work.
- Alan Guth
#Gravity
At one-sixth gravity in that suit, you have to move in a different way.
- Alan Bean
#Gravity
After floating for nine and a half months in space, gravity is not your friend.
- Peggy Whitson
#Gravity
It is fantastic to think that one day we may be able to access fuel, materials and even water in space instead of digging deeper and deeper into our planet for what we need and then dragging it all up into orbit, against Earth's gravity.
- Rusty Schweickart
#Gravity
The Planck satellite may detect the imprint of the gravitational waves predicted by inflation. This would be quantum gravity written across the sky.
- Stephen Hawking
#Gravity
Obviously, because of my disability, I need assistance. But I have always tried to overcome the limitations of my condition and lead as full a life as possible. I have traveled the world, from the Antarctic to zero gravity.
- Stephen Hawking
#Gravity
We account for one-sixth of the forces of gravity we see in the universe. There is no known objects accounting for most of the effective gravity in the universe. Something is making stuff move that is not anything we have ever touched.
- Neil deGrasse Tyson
#Gravity
Most gravity has no known origin. Is it some exotic particle? Nobody knows. Is dark energy responsible for expansion of the universe? Nobody knows.
- Neil deGrasse Tyson
#Gravity
Just as the system of the sun, planets and comets is put in motion by the forces of gravity, and its parts persist in their motions, so the smaller systems of bodies also seem to be set in motion by other forces and their particles to be variously moved in relation to each other and, especially, by the electric force.
- Isaac Newton
#Gravity
The smaller the planets are, they are, other things being equal, of so much the greater density; for so the powers of gravity on their several surfaces come nearer to equality. They are likewise, other things being equal, of the greater density, as they are nearer to the sun.
- Isaac Newton
#Gravity
The microgravity or the very, very low amount of gravity that we have up in space forces some changes in different processes. It forces changes in us as human beings.
- Laurel Clark
#Gravity
Man must at all costs overcome the Earth's gravity and have, in reserve, the space at least of the Solar System.
- Konstantin Tsiolkovsky
#Gravity
It will free man from the remaining chains, the chains of gravity which still tie him to this planet.
- Wernher von Braun
#Gravity
Since I was a kid, I always wanted to figure out how to make a bass line that was a pendulum - like, gravity would control it, and then you could make it play different notes.
- Bjork
#Gravity
Space music'd be really something... but they don't have no gravity up there. You couldn't have no downbeat!
- Miles Davis
#Gravity
In a poem the excitement has to maintain itself. I am governed by the pull of the sentence as the pull of a fabric is governed by gravity.
- Marianne Moore
#Gravity
It's only when gravity starts to take over you begin to think about your body.
- David Soul
#Gravity
It has been said that arguing against globalization is like arguing against the laws of gravity.
- Kofi Annan
#Gravity
From birth, man carries the weight of gravity on his shoulders. He is bolted to earth. But man has only to sink beneath the surface and he is free.
- Jacques Yves Cousteau
#Gravity
I've been noticing gravity since I was very young.
- Cameron Diaz
#Gravity
You will find truth more quickly through delight than gravity. Let out a little more string on your kite.
- Alan Cohen
#Gravity
My family quite innocently don't understand the ins and outs of it all, but they see things like the Burberry show and the Live Lounge, so they understand the gravity of those things, but they're proud - it's cool.
- James Bay
#Gravity
With some CGI, I think the brain slightly perceives that things aren't real. There's no gravity, the light's not quite real, the shadows aren't quite real.
- Nick Park
#Gravity
Technically you need the extra dimensions. At first people didn't like them too much, but they've got a big benefit, which is that the ability of string theory to describe all the elementary particles and their forces along with gravity depends on using the extra dimensions.
- Edward Witten
#Gravity
I think the central mission in Afghanistan right now is to protect the people, certainly, and that would be inclusive of everybody, and that in a, in an insurgency and a counterinsurgency, that's really the center of gravity.
- Michael Mullen
#Gravity
Love is metaphysical gravity.
- R. Buckminster Fuller
#Gravity
The theory of evolution, like the theory of gravity, is a scientific fact.
- Neil deGrasse Tyson
#Gravity
I defy gravity.
- Marilyn Monroe
#Gravity
The moon gravitates towards the earth and by the force of gravity is continually drawn off from a rectilinear motion and retained in its orbit.
- Isaac Newton
#Gravity
Gravity must be caused by an Agent acting constantly according to certain laws, but whether this Agent be material or immaterial I have left to the consideration of my readers.
- Isaac Newton
#Gravity
The same law takes place in a system, consisting of many bodies, as in one single body, with regard to their persevering in their state of motion or of rest. For the progressive motion, whether of one single body or of a whole system of bodies, is always to be estimated from the motion of the center of gravity.
- Isaac Newton
#Gravity
The hypothesis of matter's being at first evenly spread through the heavens is, in my opinion, inconsistent with the hypothesis of innate gravity without a supernatural power to reconcile them, and therefore, it infers a deity.
- Isaac Newton
#Gravity
I have explained the phenomena of the heavens and of our sea by the force of gravity, but I have not yet assigned a cause to gravity.
- Isaac Newton
#Gravity
If a projectile were deprived of the force of gravity, it would not be deflected toward the earth but would go off in a straight line into the heavens and do so with uniform motion, provided that the resistance of the air were removed.
- Isaac Newton
#Gravity
We can lick gravity, but sometimes the paperwork is overwhelming.
- Wernher von Braun
