And they do tend to be fast and up, because that's how I like to drive.

If I had to name the number one asset you could have for any sport I'd say speed. In baseball, all a guy with speed has to do is make contact.

A Dalit needs Jupiter's escape velocity to achieve success.
~ Rahul Gandhi
Was it too late? Could he still gather strength, just throw himself at something, if only to feel that velocity again? What was there to lose, when you gave up on figuring it out…or worse, when you saw that there was no figuring it out?
~ Amanda Eyre Ward
It fought, like the angels and devils, in mid-air, cleaving the atmosphere like a bird, describing a parabolic curve and descending upon its victim at just the exact angle of incidence to make the most of its velocity and weight.

Time is relative, said Heraclitus a long time ago, and distance a function of velocity. Since the ultimate goal of transport technology is the annihilation of space, the compression of all Being into one pure point, it follows that six-packs help.

Relativity asserts that all observers, whatever their velocities relative to one another, measure exactly the same number for the speed of light. The invariance of the speed of light allows two apparently unrelated quantities, the dimension of time and the three dimensions of space, to be united into one four-dimensional entity, spacetime.
~ Frank J. Tipler
The jet stream is a very strong force and pushing a balloon into it is like pushing up against a brick wall, but once we got into it, we found that, remarkably, the balloon went whatever speed the wind went.
~ Richard Branson
Windmills, which are used in the great plains of Holland and North Germany to supply the want of falling water, afford another instance of the action of velocity. The sails are driven by air in motion - by wind.
~ Hermann von Helmholtz
I play the harmonica. The only way I can play is if I get my car going really fast, and stick it out the window.
~ Steven Wright
The velocity and knee-jerk response to events happening in real time that television brings us precludes any kind of reflection or contemplation and therefore analysis. And that's been one of the greatest political dangers in the post-war era. The idea of the reasoned, thoughtful response goes out of the window.
