I'm all for whatever transitions the book properly to a movie.
To have attained to the human form is a source of joy. . . What an incomparable bliss it is to undergo these countless transitions.
Fear is the friction in all transitions.
Somehow, the agenda has been put into the form of talking about a set of transitions from state A, the present, to a state B that's sustainable. The problem is that there is no such state. You have to assume that the transitions are going to continue forever and ever and ever. You have to talk about systems that are continuously dynamic, and that are embedded in environments that themselves are continuously dynamic.
It isn't the changes that do you in, it's the transitions. Change is not the same as transition. Change is situational: the new site, the new boss, the new team roles, the new policy. Transition is the psychological process people go through to come to terms with the new situation. Change is external, transition is internal
When he ran from a cop, his transitions from accelerating walk to easy jog trot to brisk canter to headlong gallop to flogged-piston sprint. . . were as distinct and as soberly in order as an automatic gearshift.
Life, it seems, is nothing if not a series of initiations, transitions, and incorporations.
There certainly is a pattern of administrations that have good transitions, George W. Bush to Barack Obama, and administrations that have really bad transitions, I would say Dwight Eisenhower to John F. Kennedy. I would say this is beginning to look like a bad transition, from Barack Obama to Donald Trump as they begin to argue even at the presidential level, which is more or less unprecedented.
Ironically, we have even fewer examples of evolutionary transitions than we had in Darwin's time.
I think all my movies are about transitions to some degree.
My expertise is the space program and what it should be in the future based on my experience of looking at the transitions that we've made between pre-Sputnik days and getting to the moon.
In any business that grows big on one business model, transitions can throw everything in the air.
There's childhood and early onset bipolar, but it transitions in your early adulthood into something a little bit different, and extremely severe. It was at that time that my impulse control just went out the window. Impulse control when you're manic just disappears.
All classifications in this world lack sharp boundaries, and all transitions are gradual.
Either the Earth System would undergo major phase transitions as a result of unchecked human pressure on nature's capacities and resources or a "Great Transformation" towards global sustainability would be initiated in due course. Neither transitions nor transformations will be manageable without novel forms of global governance and markets.
When someone transitions you should refer to them by their new name both in the present and with references back in time.
It isn't the changes that do you in, it's the transitions.
Transitions are critically important. I want the reader to turn the page without thinking she's turning the page. It must flow seamlessly.
It is impossible to overestimate the influence of parents who understand the hearts of their children. Research shows that during the most important transitions of life—including those periods when youth are most likely to drift away from the Church—the greatest influence does not come from an interview with the bishop or some other leader but from the regular, warm, friendly, caring interaction with parents.
I was relying on a kind of natural transition - the transitions made by someone who is slightly deranged.
