Right Angles Quotes

I’m quite lucky in that at certain angles I look all right, and at others I don’t look so good, which enables me to play some leading roles and some stranger, more ‘character’-type parts. I wouldn’t say I’m the conventional handsome Hollywood leading man Picture Quote #1

For us tall people, the whole key is that your hips and your knees should form a right angle when you sit down. That’s where backs and hips get to be problems for big guys Picture Quote #1

Why can’t we have those curves and arches that express feeling in design? What is wrong with them? Why has everything got to be vertical, straight, unbending, only at right angles - and functional? Picture Quote #1

I think that the point of being an architect is to help raise the experience of everyday living, even a little. Putting a window where people would really like one. Making sure a shaving mirror in a hotel bathroom is at the right angle. Making bureaucratic buildings that are somehow cheerful Picture Quote #1

I’m probably borderline OCD. I insist on having all objects at right angles to each other. So a fork has to be at a right angle to the knife on the table. The salt and pepper pots have to be placed close together. Only recently have I started to notice it’s a weird way to behave Picture Quote #1

Hard to find anything lovelier than a tree. They grow at right angles to a tangent of the nominal sphere of the Earth Picture Quote #1

I have a scar on my left thigh, kind of almost near my knee. I essentially fell in the 2002 Olympics and when I hit the wall - because of the impact - my right leg kind of came in at like a knife-type angle and stabbed my leg with my own skate blade Picture Quote #1

Well, I think that Augusta is not the same golf course that I grew up on. Bobby Jones’ philosophy was giving you space off the tee; if you put it in the right side of the fairway, you ended up getting the right angle to the green Picture Quote #1

Time, so to say, runs at right angles to the page at each point on the curve Picture Quote #1

Who says I like right angles? These are not my laws, these are not my rules Picture Quote #1

Right angles don’t attract me. Nor straight, hard and inflexible lines created by man Picture Quote #1

I was made at right angles to the world and I see it so. I can only see it so Picture Quote #1

The landscape is like being there with a powerful personality and I’m searching for just the right angles to make that portrait come across as meaningfully as possible Picture Quote #1

If you direct your attention to the position of a bird with regard to the wave surface, it will speedily be noticed to be nearly always on the rising side or face of the wave and moving apparently at right angles to the wave’s course, but really diagonal to it Picture Quote #1

That, if a straight line falling on two straight lines makes the interior angles on the same side less than two right angles, the two straight lines, if produced indefinitely, meet on that side on which the angles are less than two right angles Picture Quote #1

What, then, is light according to the electromagnetic theory? It consists of alternate and opposite rapidly recurring transverse magnetic disturbances, accompanied with electric displacements, the direction of the electric displacement being at the right angles to the magnetic disturbance, and both at right angles to the direction of the ray Picture Quote #1

Balance of light is the problem, not the amount. Balance between shadows and highlights determines where the emphasis goes in the picture... make sure the major light in a picture falls at right angles to the camera Picture Quote #1

All architecture, classical or not, must have some sense of order, and order is much harder to achieve without the straight lines and right angles that have dominated the building art from time immemorial Picture Quote #1
