It is a power stronger than will. Could a stone escape from the laws of gravity? Impossible. Impossible, for evil to form an alliance with good.
Isidore Ducasse Lautreamont

It will free man from the remaining chains, the chains of gravity which still tie him to this planet.
Wernher von Braun

It's only when gravity starts to take over you begin to think about your body.
David Soul

Jackass: The Movie is great. I think it's in the tradition of physical comedy, which I'm really interested in. Its relationship to gravity, and how gravity acts on the body.
Matthew Barney

Love is metaphysical gravity.
R. Buckminster Fuller

Man must at all costs overcome the Earth's gravity and have, in reserve, the space at least of the Solar System.
Konstantin Tsiolkovsky

My physics teacher, Thomas Miner was particularly gifted. To this day, I remember how he introduced the subject of physics. He told us we were going to learn how to deal with very simple questions such as how a body falls due to the acceleration of gravity.
Steven Chu

My relationship to gravity is permanently altered.
Steven Jesse Bernstein

Not believing in force is the same as not believing in gravity.
Leon Trotsky

Opinion is like a pendulum and obeys the same law. If it goes past the centre of gravity on one side, it must go a like distance on the other; and it is only after a certain time that it finds the true point at which it can remain at rest.
Arthur Schopenhauer

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

Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and then, for a second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Someday, after we have mastered the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love. Then for the second time in the history of the world, we will have discovered fire.
Teilhard de Chardin

Strings of gravity vibrate at a different frequency than strings of light.
Roy H. Williams

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

The fatal law of gravity; when you are down, everything falls down on you.
Sylvia T. Warner

The laws in this city are clearly racist. All laws are racist. The law of gravity is racist.
Marion Berry

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

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

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
