Quotes About Trajectory

Folks, the trajectory we were on prior to the virus was taking us towards destruction. God has intervened. He's given us a chance for some personal evaluations, some individual reflection to turn our hearts and our faces to Him.
~ Allen Jackson
I define sustainable history as a durable progressive trajectory in which the quality of life on this planet or other planets is premised on the guarantee of human dignity for all at all times and under all circumstances.
~ Al-Rodan, Nayef
Paint ghosts over everything, the sadness of everything. We made ourselves cold. We made ourselves snow. We smuggled ourselves into ourselves. Haunted by each other's knowledge. To hide somewhere is not surrender, it is trickery. All day the snow falls down, all night the snow. I try to guess your trajectory and end up telling my own story. We left footprints in the slush of ourselves, getting out of there.
~ Richard Siken
Ida Noddack's theories and Lise Meitner's explanations had resulted in a chain reaction of their own, science colliding with military and industry, splitting into compartmentalized and mobilized units, each moving along its own trajectory, ready to make sand jump in the desert.
~ Denise Kiernan
The careful study of the Word has a goal, which is not the careful study of the Word. The objective is to discover Jesus and allow Him to change our trajectory. Meaning, a genuine study of the Word results in believers who feed poor people and open up their guest rooms; they're adopting and sharing, mentoring and intervening.
~ Jen Hatmaker
N? vienas iš m?s? neina pasirinktu keliu, neišklysdamas iš jo. kaip duj? molekul?s, nuolat veikiamos sm?gi?, priverstos be perstog?s keisti trajektorij?, taip ir žmones nuolatos veikia visokiausi atsitiktinumai.
~ Andre Maurois
The Western countries have experienced a development trajectory in which higher wages led to the invention of labour-saving technology, whose use drove up labour productivity and wages with it.
~ Robert C. Allen
To live in modernity--an era contemporaneous with the triumph of the news--is to be constantly reminded that, thanks to science and technology, change and improvement are continuous and relentless. This is part of the reason we must keep checking the news in the first place: we might at any moment be informed of some extraordinary development that will fundamentally alter reality. Time is an arrow following a precarious, rapid and yet tantalizingly upward trajectory.
~ Alain de Botton
near-Earth objects that approach the Earth's orbit to within 0.05 AU, which is roughly the distance that a near-Earth object's trajectory can be gravitationally altered by a single planetary encounter.
~ Donald K. Yeomans
My life is one long curve, full of turning points.
~ Pierre Trudeau
How crazy, how thrilling that your whole life trajectory can change in just one night. I've always been scared of change, but right now I didn't feel that way. I feel excited. I'm seeing now what a privilege it is, to be excited about where I'm going.
~ Jenny Han

I have often told people that they need to evaluate their lives by the video, and not by the snapshot. That is, they should not just look at one moment in time, but rather consider trajectories, tendencies, and narrative arc as well.
~ Douglas Wilson
If you don't change direction, you end up where you are headed.

I don't really recognise success. I don't see myself as on an upwardly mobile trajectory. I see myself as on the edge of a cliff about to fall off.
~ Jonathan Ames
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.
~ Ambrose Bierce
The greatest thing in this world is not so much where we stand as in what direction we are moving.
~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
If there is danger in the human trajectory, it is not so much in the survival of our own species as in the fulfillment of the ultimate irony of organic evolution: that in the instant of achieving self-understanding through the mind of man, life has doomed its most beautiful creations.
~ E. O. Wilson
The challenge of life, present for most of it but more dominant in the second half, is adjusting to loss or, more specifically, developing the judgment and grace not only to accept its inevitability but also to recognize that it's not the only trajectory, that there are many ways to meet and measure it and that there are consolations, including all that remains. Cherishing those leftovers—those holdovers—is the key to thriving, and sometimes even to surviving.
~ Frank Bruni
The creative scientific process is - It's kind of - It's a windy road that has a trajectory, but it's a slow trajectory.
~ Pardis Sabeti
I don't think it's going to come to that, especially with the fact that we're going down, not up. We're going very substantially down, not up.
