Vince Lombardi

Character is just another word for having a perfectly disciplined and educated will. A person can make his own character by blending these elements with an intense desire to achieve excellence. Everyone is different in what I will call magnitude, but the capacity to achieve character is still the same.

American Coach

James C. Maxwell

Every existence above a certain rank has its singular points; the higher the rank the more of them. At these points, influences whose physical magnitude is too small to be taken account of by a finite being may produce results of the greatest importance.

Scottish Mathematician

Paul McGann

I'm not a sci-fi lover; I wasn't from the start. So perhaps I miss that passion for other worlds, other dimensions, that sort of scope and that magnitude of storytelling; that's not my thing though I meet plenty of people whose thing it definitely is.

English Actor

Katherine Moennig

It's very interesting how life imitates art, and art imitates life; I find, whenever I read scenes of some magnitude, I'm like, 'Oh, I feel like I've experienced this,' or 'I am experiencing this,' or 'I might start to experience it soon.

American Actress

Georges Duhamel

Let us lose none of their humble words, let us note their slightest gestures, and tell me, tell me that we will think of them together, now and later, when we realise the misery of the times and the magnitude of their sacrifice.

French Novelist

Russell M. Nelson

I feel impressed to counsel those engaged in personal challenges to do right. In particular, my heart reaches out to those who feel discouraged by the magnitude of their struggle.

American Clergyman

Zach Johnson

When you're trying to accomplish lofty goals, and when you're attacking something of great magnitude, you have to have help.

American Athlete

Robert Kennedy

Wars of any magnitude release powerful social and economic forces which can change the whole face of the world.

American Politician

Jose Eduardo dos Santos

It is often said that the magnitude of a people is measured by their ability to know how to win.

Statesman

Dan Quayle

I couldn't help but be impressed by the magnitude of the earthquake.

American Vice President

Use to compare when discussing scope or scale of various entities.

Comparative Context

It can describe abstract concepts, not just physical size.

Not Just Physical

Ensure the context truly reflects a substantial degree or amount.

Avoid Understatement

In astronomy, magnitude has a specific, inverse scale for measurement.

Scale Specific

Understand the difference between 'apparent' and 'absolute' magnitude.

Brightness Type

Magnitude relates to brightness as seen from Earth, not the energy output.

Not Luminosity

Magnitude in geology uses scales like Richter to quantify earthquake strength.

It measures the energy released, not the surface damage caused.

Not Damage Level

Magnitude is relative; a one-point increase represents a tenfold energy release increase.

Relative Measurement

It's used to stress the importance or impact of non-tangible situations.

Abstract Quality

Its meaning changes with context; in some cases, it can mean severity.

Context Sensitive

 They're also the center of one of the greatest scientific mysteries of our time because according to the current theories, the quantum fluctuations in the vacuum of space ought to have 120 orders of magnitude more energy than we observe. Solving the mystery of that missing energy may entirely rewrite our understanding of physics and the universe.

Is it possible to create...

 move passively out of your lungs and into your blood stream. We know that the world is filled with complex physical problems, but sometimes the first step towards understanding them can be simple. So when you confront the magnitude of the ocean's currents, or have to figure out how electricity works, remember not to panic.

Making waves: The power...

 while your friend's weight provides the resistance force. What Archimedes learned was that there is an important relationship between the magnitudes of these forces and their distances from the fulcrum. The lever is balanced when the product of the effort force and the length of the effort arm

The mighty mathematics...

 Well, we're currently expecting to make a booster and a ship roughly every, well, initially, roughly every couple of months, and then hopefully by the end of this year, one every month. So it's giant rockets, and a lot of them. Just talking in terms of rough orders of magnitude,

Elon Musk: A future...

 Being an aerial cinematographer, I understand the magnitude of how big these natural disasters are getting now. So for me, it's you know most important, I think, is, setting aside this habitat for animals and trying to protect what we have remaining and quit logging them,

How Drones Are Helping...

 We've currently touched the atomic level, though our control remains limited. But we potentially could go much smaller in the future. To get a sense of the extent to which that's true, the observable universe is 26 orders of magnitude larger than a human body.

Is there a limit to...

 But it means I study the very smallest structures in the universe -- the building blocks of reality. If we think about the scale of size, start with an everyday object like the tennis ball, and just go down orders of magnitude in size --

How Quantum Biology...

 is not on our side we have all the money in the world we don't have time the climate change desertification biodiversity loss these are so serious that people are not comprehending the magnitude of it yet

Avoiding desertification...

 Why, then, do rocks look and feel solid and hard and impenetrable? As an evolutionary biologist, I'd say our brains have evolved to help us survive within the orders of magnitude, of size and speed

Why the universe seems...
