До Ньютона движение таких вещей, как планеты, было загадкой, но после Ньютона наступило полное понимание. — Before Newton’s time, the motions of things like the planets were a mystery, but after Newton there was complete understanding.

Открытие законов динамики, или законов движения, стало драматическим моментом в истории науки.

Даже небольшие отклонения от законов Кеплера, вызванные возмущениями планет, можно было вычислить.

Движения маятников, осцилляторов с пружинами и грузами и так далее - все это можно было полностью проанализировать после того, как были сформулированы законы Ньютона.

Так и с этой главой: до этой главы мы не могли рассчитать, как будет двигаться масса на пружине; тем более мы не могли рассчитать возмущения на планете Уран, вызванные Юпитером и Сатурном.

После этой главы мы сможем вычислить не только движение колеблющейся массы, но и возмущения на планете Уран, вызванные Юпитером и Сатурном!

Галилей сделал большой шаг вперед в понимании движения, когда открыл принцип инерции: если объект оставлен в покое, не потревожен, он продолжает двигаться с постоянной скоростью по прямой линии, если он изначально был движущимся, или продолжает стоять на месте, если он просто стоял на месте.

Конечно, в природе так не бывает, ведь если провести блок по столу, он остановится, но это потому, что он не предоставлен сам себе - он трется о стол.

Чтобы найти правильное правило, требовалось определенное воображение, и это воображение было предоставлено Галилеем.

America is going to be destroyed by Obamacare, so whatever deal is put together must at least reschedule the implementation of Obamacare.

To be humble to superiors is duty, to equals courtesy, to inferiors nobleness.

I've always loved New Orleans music. I always loved it when the Neville Brothers opened up for the Grateful Dead and the Dirty Dozen and all that.

It took me 20 years of making movies to learn how to do it.

Today it is time for every child to have a right to life, right to freedom, right to health, right to education, safety, the right to dignity, right to equality, and right to peace.

I like men who are very cool but who are also so brilliant that they are almost insane. Sean Penn, Gary Oldman, Bob Dylan, Tom Waits - men who would be flipping burgers if they hadn't found an outlet for their brilliant mind-sets.

My closest friends are Roger Moore, who is an actor, Sean Connery, who is an actor, Terry O'Neill, who is a photographer, Johnny Gold, who was the boss of Tramp, and Leslie Bricusse, who is a composer.

The science is settled; it's not even a consensus, it is a unanimity that human life begins at conception.

Though I love the luxury of the Waldorf Towers, room service there doesn't do soul food.

I'd wanted to be a writer and when I came back to New York worked as a musician too, but I found my writing starting to get more and more referential to cinema.

Each flower is a soul blossoming out to nature.

I am now, and will always be me. But when it comes time to step out onto that field, me gets a little more dedicated, a little more serious, and nobody stands in my way.

Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle.

When Governor Romney asked me to join the ticket, I said, 'Let's get this done' - and that is exactly, what we're going to do.

We will push those crooks, those mercenaries back into the swamp.

Not surprisingly, my parents' generation did everything they could to make life easier for their own children. Was that good for us? I wonder. It certainly didn't do us any good from a cultural point of view. I'm struck by how few boomers have embraced adult culture in middle age.

Housework wont kill you but then again why take the chance

In mathematics and science, there is no difference in the intelligence of men and women. The difference in genes between men and women is simply the Y chromosome, which has nothing to do with intelligence.

If you can teach a child, then her family and her future is taken care of.

I'm always frustrated when somebody makes a movie out of a book and they leave the book behind, or the heart of it.

Mosquitoes remind us that we are not as high up on the food chain as we think.

You can make a difference, and you can make it now. You can make a difference, in your own life, in your family, your community, your world.

And may we not say Adeimantus that the most gifted minds when they are ill educated become the worst

In the deregulated realm of US banking and finance, crime does occasionally pay for its foul deeds, not in prison time but by making modest rebates to the victims.
