8 QUOTES WITH «KINETIC»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word kinetic.
1
Tony Gilroy
The writing is really hard. You're alone. It really pulls it out of you. You pull it out of your head. But when you're a director, you're shopping - you're picking this actor, you're picking this scene. It's like the most intense kinetic high-speed shopping of all time. You sit in a chair and it will all come rushing at you like a wind tunnel.
2
Aaron Klug
In the course of my stay there, I also showed how one could analyse the experimental kinetic curves for the reaction of haemoglobin with carbon dioxide or oxygen by simulations in the computer, and so fit the rate constants.
3
William Standish Knowles
Later in the fifties I got involved in kinetic studies using my long forgotten math background.
4
Barney Oliver
The factor most ignored in discussing interstellar flight is the kinetic energy that must be invested in the ship to make its tons of matter move at a substantial fraction of the speed of light.
5
Leander Paes
I've always had this hyper kinetic energy, so I don't really need much sleep at night.
6
John Patrick Shanley

Wilhelm Wien
According to the kinetic theory of gases, the mean kinetic energy of a molecule is a measure of absolute temperature.
8
David Wroblewski
I set writing aside when I went into theater, and then I set theater aside and subsequently had about a 25-year career in software development. Which, by the way, is a very creative field. I equate it more to kinetic sculpture than anything else, as an activity.
