Quotations regarding 'Gravity'

Choose a letter: 
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, Irish Poet (1821-1889)
Bad things do happen; how I respond to them defines my character and the quality of my life. I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, immobilized by the gravity of my loss, or I can choose to rise from the pain and treasure the most precious gift I have - life itself.
Walter Anderson, German Writer (1885-1962)
It has been said that arguing against globalization is like arguing against the laws of gravity.
Kofi Annan, Statesman (1938-  )
In this movie they took them up in space. They're floating around and doing zero gravity stuff. Well, they had to do it all on wires. All the wires had to be painted black against this black background. If you didn't light it properly you could see the wires. Drove them crazy!
John Badham, British Director (1939-  )

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.

You may hate gravity, but gravity doesn't care.
Clayton Christensen, American Businessman (1952-  )
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, American Scientist (1948-  )
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, American Astronaut (1961-2003)
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, American Astronaut (1961-2003)
You will find truth more quickly through delight than gravity. Let out a little more string on your kite.
Alan Cohen, American Businessman (1954-  )
To practice five things under all circumstances constitutes perfect virtue; these five are gravity, generosity of soul, sincerity, earnestness, and kindness.
