Even as radio waves are picked up wherever a set is tuned in to their wavelength, so the thoughts which each of us think each moment of the day go forth into the world to influence for good or bad each other human mind.
-- Christmas Humphreys -
In general, the objects in the universe that are very high-energy objects, or the processes that are high-energy processes, will radiate more in the short wavelength range towards the gamma rays or the x-rays.
-- Claude Nicollier -
Violet has the shortest wavelength of the spectrum. Behind it, the invisible ultraviolet. Roses are Red, Violets are Blue. Poor violet, violated for a rhyme.
-- Derek Jarman -
A lot of men are very possessive and they want to control you. But as you grow older, you attract people who are on your wavelength and who understand who you are.
-- Marisa Berenson -
For as long as one has no further point of reference, apart from the position of the maximum, the wavelength thus remains uncertain by an integral factor.
-- Max von Laue -
For in 1900 all electromagnetic radiation of longer wavelengths was already known at least to the extent that one could not seek in it the more striking characteristics of X-rays such as, for example, the strong penetrating power.
-- Max von Laue -
The expansion of the whole cosmos was but the shrinkage of all its physical units and of the wavelengths of light.
-- Olaf Stapledon -
Lonely Places, then are the places that are not on international wavelengths, do not know how to carry themselves, are lost when it comes to visitors. They are shy, defensive, curious places; places that do not know how they are supposed to behave.
-- Pico Iyer -
She couldn't be on his wavelength all the time. That's all. When you could recognize that and deal with it, you were on your way to an adult relationship.
-- Stephen King -
Every weirdo in the world is on my wavelength.
-- Thomas Pynchon -
I taught myself to tune in to another persons wavelength, figure out what they were looking for, and try to project that thing back at them.
-- Wolfman Jack -
Anything you make has its own wavelength and its own sound. It's like a tuning fork, until the things that resonate are correct for it.
-- Akiva Goldsman -
The study of celestial phenomena at radio wavelengths, radio astronomy came into being after the accidental discovery of cosmic radiation by radio engineer, Karl Jansky in 1933.
-- Honor Harger -
However far apart we pull two entagled particles, they remain 'connected' through their common wavelength function. Their fates remain intertwined until a measurement is made on one of them, collapsing their common wavelength function.
-- Jim Al-Khalili
