On the tennis court, one needs a cool temperament, tremendous ball sense, reflexes, speed, hand-eye co-ordination, power, timing and peak physical fitness. Off the court, the player and support team need skills in planning, execution, travel, an ability to raise funds when needed, and several other talents.

A world where wages no longer rise still needs consumers. Middle-class purchasing power has been maintained through loans, loans and more loans. The Calvinistic reflex that you have to work for your money has turned into a license for inequality.

Dutch Historian

Bernard Hopkins

When you get older, the first thing that starts to go is reflexes, and reflexes are important for any person, especially an athlete - to react to something in a time when something is going on, and you can't be a second or two behind.

Lucy Lawless

I was black and blue for about two years, but it's paid off tremendously. You know, if you get enough whacks, your reflexes pick up, and I've become quite good - if somebody throws keys or something, I can catch them.

Baseball is a spirited race of man against man, reflex against reflex. A game of inches. Every skill is measured. Every heroic, every failing is seen and cheered, or booed. And then becomes a statistic.

American Celebrity

I wanted to be a monk at some time in my life, or a priest, so there was a kind of reflex quite early on not to be attached to anything that might be taken away.

British Composer

Jean-Claude Juncker

Forgetting the importance of national landscapes, cultures, national behaviours, reactions, and reflexes is a big, big mistake.

Luxembourger Politician

Steven Pinker

The human capacity for compassion is not a reflex that is triggered automatically by the presence of another living thing.

Canadian Scientist

What is history? An echo of the past in the future; a reflex from the future on the past.

Politics is the reflex of the business and industrial world.

Reflex refers to actions your body does automatically, without you deciding to do them.

Involuntary Action

A reflex isn't controlled by conscious thought; it happens instinctively.

Not Deliberate

Reflex actions are typically very fast, protecting us from harm.

Quick Response

As an adjective, 'reflex' describes an action done automatically without active thought.

Unconscious Gesture

A reflex movement is made instantly in response to a stimulus.

Immediate Action

'Reflex' in physics talks about light or sound bouncing off surfaces.

Physical Phenomenon

When discussing reflex in physics, it's about the reflection you can observe, not the action.

Observational Reflection

In photography, 'reflex' indicates a mechanism for previewing the actual image to be captured.

Camera Technology

Reflex cameras let you see through the lens, reducing image discrepancies.

 I was expecting the robot to immediately fall over, because there are no sensors, no fast feedback loop. But no, just the mechanics stabilized the gait, and the robot doesn't fall over. Obviously, if you make the step bigger, and if you have obstacles, you need the full control loops and reflexes and everything. But what's important here is that just for small perturbation,

 So I don't know what to do, so my first reflex, as a graphic designer, is, you know, to show everybody what I'd just seen, and people started to see them and to share them, and that's how it started. The day after, when really it became a lot of talking, I said to myself, and my wife said to me,

 It's something very different. It starts way up here, but then it's a free fall. It's very much like they brought into this world the reflex that orients them to people, but it has no traction. It's almost as if that stimulus -- you -- you're not exerting influence on what happens

 The gas stings Iris, and suddenly, she can't help it, she starts weeping uncontrollably. These reflex tears are different from the basal tears that Iris is used to. Because they're designed to wash away harmful substances, or particles, they're released in much larger amounts,
