Wesley Snipes

I like science fiction and physics, things like that. Planets being sucked into black holes, and the various vortexes that create possibility, and what happens on the other side of the black hole. To me it's the microcosmic study of the macrocosmic universe in man, and that's why I'm attracted to it.

American Actor

Greg Kinnear

I really don't make a concerted effort to try to find a type of role. Maybe I've just done enough of them now where people are like, 'Oh, it's the guy that's in a swirling vortex of despair, send it to Kinnear!' I don't really know, but it does seem to be a recurring theme.

Danielle Fishel

It's pretty easy to get sucked into a vortex of others and what their thoughts are and letting other people's judgments of you make you actually believe them about yourself. And sometimes you just need people to remind you that none of it means anything.

American Actress

Rush Limbaugh

Young people, those who think they're experts in science, there's no doubt. They just believe it, and so there has to be an explanation - and whatever man is doing has caused the jet stream to slow down, and that is permitting the polar vortex.

American Entertainer

Panos Cosmatos

My mother died in 1997 and I spiralled into this self-destructive vortex of trying to annihilate my consciousness. I was afraid to face the grief of losing her, because she was somebody I loved more than anybody else in the world.

Canadian Director

Barbara Amiel

When faced with the inevitable fatigue that comes with the recycling of speeches and the recycling of thoughts in a rather small stream of vortex, I am urged to not be ashamed of recycling.

British Journalist

Nick Kroll

I can't play video games or games on my phone because I'll go into a deep vortex, and no one will hear from me for weeks.

Ezra Pound

The image is more than an idea. It is a vortex or cluster of fused ideas and is endowed with energy.

American Poet

Ian Somerhalder

There are certain places in the world that are kind of energy vortexes, which are phenomenal.

Kevin Costner

I was sucked into this vortex of a very conservative upbringing.

Think of 'vortex' as dynamic; linked with energy or movement in fluid or air.

Dynamic Movement

'Vortex' often implies a visible spiral shape, like water going down a drain.

Visible Spiral

Use 'vortex' when describing natural phenomena, especially with swirling motions.

Natural Phenomena

'Vortex' metaphorically describes situations that captivate or trap people.

Think of 'vortex' as emotionally powerful, drawing people into intense states.

Emotional Power

A 'vortex' can imply a situation that is difficult to break free from.

Central Focus

Use 'vortex' to express where many elements converge or come together.

Convergence Point

'Vortex' implies rapid change or activity within a central area.

Technical Context

 above the cloud layer and below the cloud layer differ significantly, and in the middle, in between, you get this undulating of the air, and if the difference in those speeds is just right, the tops of the undulations curl over in these beautiful breaking wave-like vortices. All right. Those are rarer clouds than the cirrus,
