The only two things you can truly depend upon are gravity and greed.
I always found it satisfying that gravity was described by Einstein's geometric theory of general relativity.
We account for all the matter and energy that we're familiar with, measure up how much gravity it should have, it's one-sixth of the gravity that's actually operating on the universe. We call that dark matter. It really should be called dark gravity. We don't know what that is.
I wanted to be in an anti-gravity machine so bad! Maybe a different time, a different place.
If you step out of a tenth story window you do not break the law of gravity, you confirm it.
The vermin explain their sin with sanctimonious language like, "We've prayed about it and sought counsel, and we feel it's the right thing to do. " Don't let it down on them that to the Enemy what they feel is inconsequential. His moral laws don't give a rip about how any of them feel. The sludgebags have no more power to vote them in and out of existence than they have power to revoke the law of gravity.
We juggle priceless eggs in variable gravity. I am afraid. I will taste fear until I die.
The difficulty lay with the mind accommodating itself to the notion of the plane, with all its weight, defying gravity, staying aloft. She understood the aerodynamics of flight, could comprehend the laws of physics that made flight possible, but her heart, at the moment, would have none of it. Her heart knew the plane could fall out of the sky.
What we gotta do is, we gotta figure out a way to reverse gravity, so that we all fall upward, through the clouds and sky, all the way to Heaven.
Tonality is a natural force, like gravity.
The determination of the average man is not merely a matter of speculative curiosity; it may be of the most important service to the science of man and the social system. It ought necessarily to precede every other inquiry into social physics, since it is, as it were, the basis. The average man, indeed, is in a nation what the centre of gravity is in a body; it is by having that central point in view that we arrive at the apprehension of all the phenomena of equilibrium and motion.
Gravity is love and every turn is a leap of faith.
It is our nature to defy gravity, to transcend the limitations of the reasoning mind and connect with the realm of the mystical truth.
Freedom is a state of mind, I said wondering where I'd heard it before, not a state of being. We are all slaves to gravity and morality and the vicissitudes of nature. Our genes govern us much more than we'd like to think. Our bodies can not know absolute freedom but our minds can, can at least try.
Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing.
Scientists do not join hands every Sunday and sing "Yes gravity is real! I know gravity is real! I will have faith! I believe in my heart that what goes up, up, up must come down, down, down. Amen!" If they did, we would think they were pretty insecure about the concept.
I once asked a bird, how is it that you fly in this gravity of darkness? She responded, 'love lifts me. '
The trouble with plastic surgery is that after 10 years, gravity wins out and you have to have another one in a year or so.
Gravity is a habit that is hard to shake off.
Opening cans of chili in zero gravity to see how it looks, that's something that went wrong.
