Geometry Quotes

Poetry is as precise a thing as geometry.

The ballet makes us look at those bodies, it makes us listen to that music, it makes us wonder at the geometry, of the way they come together. The way that extraordinary space is controlled and given such emotional force.

It is hard to convince a high-school student that he will encounter a lot of problems more difficult than those of algebra and geometry.

The two elements the traveler first captures in the big city are extra human architecture and furious rhythm. Geometry and anguish.

Geometry is not true, it is advantageous.

It has adopted the geometry most advantageous to the species or, in other words, the most convenient.

There is geometry in the humming of the strings, there is music in the spacing of the spheres.

I've always been passionate about geometry and the study of three-dimensional forms.

In things to be seen at once, much variety makes confusion, another vice of beauty. In things that are not seen at once, and have no respect one to another, great variety is commendable, provided this variety transgress not the rules of optics and geometry.

The early study of Euclid made me a hater of geometry.

But good head restraint geometry by itself isn't sufficient. A seat has to be designed so it doesn't move backward and away from the head during a rear impact. A seat also needs to 'give' so an occupant will sink into it, moving the head closer to the restraint.

Automakers are improving the geometry of their head restraints, compared with the last time we evaluated them. Still, in this group of minivans the Fords are the only models with good dynamic performance for all of their seat designs. Many of the seat/head restraints we evaluated didn't even get to the testing stage because of marginal or poor geometry. These cannot begin to protect most people in rear-end crashes.

Inspiration is needed in geometry, just as much as in poetry.

The difficulty is with the analog component of the channel that is not affected by the geometry shrink. As you go to smaller geometries, you pay a penalty in leakage power.

The two elements the traveler first captures in the big city are extra human architecture and furious rhythm. Geometry and anguish. At first glance, the rhythm may be confused with gaiety, but when you look more closely at the mechanism of social life and the painful slavery of both men and machines, you see that it is nothing but a kind of typical, empty anguish that makes even crime and gangs forgivable means of escape.

Most of them just don't want to take math and geometry and the other courses to get a degree. They want to learn to build boots and saddles and go home.

These students research, design, and construct prototype vehicles, applying what they learn in topics related to safety, control, geometry, aerodynamics, composite materials, fabrication techniques, and much more.

Using such fabricated arrays, it now is possible to engineer frustrated systems to alter the strength of interactions, the geometry of the lattice, the type and number of defects, and other properties that impact the nature of frustration.

Yesterday's rally was based on a number of factors. There was some financial geometry in there as well. It was an options expiry day on the New York Mercantile with a rising market. That gave it a little more oomph than it needed. Now that oil's flowing, prices are coming back in line.

I don't think they can do as well if they haven't had algebra I and II and geometry, and are avid readers. Our counselors make sure these kids know they have to have the proper courses to take the test, but we do not discourage them from taking the test if they haven't had those classes yet.

Talking about science in the courtroom used to be like talking about geometry ? a real jury turnoff. Now that there's this almost obsession with the [TV] shows, you can talk to jurors about [scientific evidence] and just see from the looks on their faces that they find it fascinating.
