Sequence Quotations

Gates is the ultimate programming machine. He believes everything can be defined, examined, reduced to essentials, and rearranged into a logical sequence that will achieve a particular goal.

The story is a machine for empathy. In contrast to logic or reason, a story is about emotion that gets staged over a sequence of dramatic moments, so you empathize with the characters without really thinking about it too much. It is a really powerful tool for imagining yourself in other people's situations.

Different viral species contain nucleic acids that differ not only in length and nucleotide sequence but in many unexpected ways as well.

The oil sequence was about two or three days. It was very cold and was snowing.

Your genome sequence will become a vital part of your medical record, thereby providing critical information about how to optimize your wellness.

I love directing more than anything in the world, and I love being in the editing room. I love cutting. When I'm shooting, I cut it in my head anyway. That's not to say that it always turns out that way, but you have a sense when you're composing a sequence or a scene how you want it to look anyway.

Although not yet routine, many cancer centers have the technology to sequence some or all of a patient's cancer genome. This can provide massive amounts of valuable information about your cancer, including whether you have genetic mutations and other abnormalities for which new drugs are available.

There's a lot of movies that aren't all about Christmas, or where Christmas isn't the focus, but have that spirit of Christmas in them. I love that sequence in 'Auntie Mame,' where she's in the department store, sewing at Macy's, and she doesn't know how to do anything but fill out a form as 'cash on delivery!'

In 1978, Elizabeth Blackburn, working with Joe Gall, identified the DNA sequence of telomeres. Every time a cell divides, it gets shorter. But telomeres usually don't. So there must be something happening to the telomeres to keep their length in equilibrium.

In the sequence where I am burned at the stake, everything was so casual and hazardous that the bottom of my dress caught fire, and the grips became hysterical as they tried to pull me off the stake.

The cause-effect sequences in our brains are just as determining, just as inescapable, as anywhere else in Nature.

I've been kind of listening to the composer Britten and his rendition of 'A Midsummer Night's Dream.' The opening track is a choral section where all the weird fairies, who are played by kids in the production, sing. It's a crazy opening melody and chord sequence - really amazing.

I like knowing where I am in action sequences if I'm supposed to.

In a way, the whole notion of a blueprint of a building is not that different from a script for a movie. A sequence of spaces, which is what you do as an architect, is really the same as a sequence of scenes.

I know that people don't listen to music much in the way when they'll put on a CD, sit down, have a drink or go on a car journey. People pick and choose and just listen to tracks. But when I make a record, I try to think about it as a 50 minute musical journey, so the mood is very important, as is the sequence of the songs.

I was using very unconventional methods to sequence the telemetric DNA, originally.

'Death with dignity' is our society's expression of the universal yearning to achieve a graceful triumph over the stark and often repugnant finality of life's last sputterings. But the fact is, death is not a confrontation. It is simply an event in the sequence of nature's ongoing rhythms.

Man's true taproots are nourished in the sequence of generations, and he loses his taproots in disrupted developmental time, not in abandoned localities.

But sequence comparisons simply can't account for the development of complex biochemical systems any more than Darwin's comparison of simple and complex eyes told him how vision worked.

Sometimes I will click on a random sequence of notes- not to actually use it in a song, but to see if I can find maybe a simple pattern that I can build off of.

If you sequence a cancerous tumor, you should be able to tailor the therapy according to the root cause of the cancer. But it has taken so long to do the sequencing - which also requires time to prepare the samples and interpret the deluge of data that comes out - that the patients are already undergoing therapy by the process if over.

The solar system should be viewed as our backyard, not as some sequence of destinations that we do one at a time.

Genes are effectively one-dimensional. If you write down the sequence of A, C, G and T, that's kind of what you need to know about that gene. But proteins are three-dimensional. They have to be because we are three-dimensional, and we're made of those proteins. Otherwise we'd all sort of be linear, unimaginably weird creatures.

I was brought up to understand Darwin's theory of evolution. I spent hours and hours in the Natural History Museum in London looking at the descriptions of how different kinds of animals had evolved, looking at the sequence of fossil bones looking gradually more and more and more and more like the modern fossil.

Poe's saying that a long poem is a sequence of short ones is perfectly just.

No poet is required to write in stanzas, or indeed in regular forms at all. Coleridge's 'Dejection: An Ode' has a rhyme scheme and sequence of long and short lines that goes without regular pattern, following the mood and whim of the poet. Such a form is known as an irregular ode.

I did the whole sequel with a broken finger. And the two night horse sequence too. My finger is two sizes bigger now.

If we have a protein sequence from bone, we can tell if the material is an original part of the organism that will provide interesting information about its past. We can know where it came from. Our goal is to use a variety of technologies new to paleontology to develop a deeper understanding of prehistoric life - and everyone dreams of embellishing our understanding of dinosaurs.

She's right there and instead of being beside somebody or behind them, she's right in front of them where you're supposed to be. And then able to come down and get the ball. There was a sequence there where she had a lay-up, a put-back, and then got the ball and kicked it out to somebody else and scored. So the neat thing is that they're able to do more than just steal and score. So it was a nice night for her. The beauty of that is somebody should come in off the bench and do that. Hopefully there's two or three that come in and do it.

Principles of motion take precedence over sequence of motion.

I did 'Echo Beach,' a surfing drama that meant I was often topless. Next came 'Demons,' and the opening sequence had me in my boxer shorts; and then there was a scene in 'Trinity' with me walking around in boxer shorts. It was only one scene in each series.

I get the impression sometimes that a play arrives in a sequence of events that I have no control over.

Based on recent literature, freeze, flight, fight, fright, faint provides a more complete description of the human acute stress response sequence than current descriptions.

Today, CDC has followed suit and has published the sequence of the virus.

Having a sequence of the human genome is good, but our ability to interpret it was limited. The mouse sequence provides, for the first time, an ability to determine what matters and what doesn't in the human genome.

He's certainly troubled by the sequence of events. It's a very odd and difficult time for him. He's getting through it, let's put it that way.

The pain caused to the parents by this dreadful sequence of events is unforgivable. I am deeply sorry.

Our lives are a sequence of things. When we're alive, they're continuing, just as my words now are an improvisation. So the idea of 30 years is actually quite nebulous. It's impossible to encapsulate it. All you can do is go: 'what next?'

Over the period ahead, as the full effects of the sequence of monetary policy moves plays out, I expect that output growth will settle on a path that is somewhat below what we saw in the first quarter, probably growing at close to the economy's potential.

We don't have the genetic sequence yet but we hope to soon which should tell us if it is the same virus that we have seen in Turkey and in the region surrounding the Black Sea area, where we have seen a lot of outbreaks in the last six months.

Thus, whenever the current sequence of tightening moves reaches completion, short-term interest rates should not be expected to remain constant for an extended period of time.

We have already had a sequence of downgrades from British Airways, Lufthansa has reduced its guidance once, and KLM has massively reduced its guidance,

We just blinked our eyes. It was just sort of a magical sequence of events.

My closet is a sea of black pants, skirts, tops, and bags, so it's great to come across a brand that makes me want to break out of my fashion rut! The Sequence Collection is an accessories line that is all about color, from funky woven bracelets to brightly-patterned bags.

The fact is that proprietary databases don't work for such basic and broadly needed information as the sequence of the human genome.

The extraordinary sequence of bets has a look of an unholy type of alliance.

The question is, are there differences in the neuroD2 gene-coding sequence or differences downstream of the neuroD2 pathway during brain development that could affect either psychiatric or emotional functions in humans? It's a completely unexplored question, ... the immediate next question you would go to if you want to understand how this gene impacts human behavior.

We're collecting about 100,000 telomere lengths in saliva samples and then looking at how those relate to both the extensive longitudinal clinical records that Kaiser is collecting and the genome sequence variations.

The decision was to put together an assembly sequence that allows us high confidence that we will finish the space station by the time the shuttle is retired.

Error is ever the sequence of haste.

With a hundred and seventy-eight machines to sequence the precise order of the billions of chemicals within a molecule of DNA, B.G.I. produces at least a quarter of the world's genomic data - more than Harvard University, the National Institutes of Health, or any other scientific institution.

We can take these genes and sequence them,

There is a common misconception about Star Wars that we shoot everything on blue screen. We actually built 72 really large sets on the film but, because there are so many different planets, there is always some part of the sequence that has blue screen in it.

The postures are designed in a specific sequence to make sure all the muscle groups are being hit, and the immune system and internal organs.

We are getting confidence in what we do. We have a good sequence now and we feel pretty good.

We're finding abundant evidence for alteration of rocks in a water environment. What we want to do is figure out which layers were on top of which other layers. To do that it has been helpful to keep climbing for good views of how the layers are tilted to varying degrees. Understanding the sequence of layers is equivalent to having a deep drill core from drilling beneath the plains.

Through our sources, the allegations do not have, (or) contain, any proof, and the sequence of events appears to be deliberately created,

Unbelievable sequence of events at the end. When you have opportunities to close out games, you've got to take advantage of them. On the play at the end of regulation, we had a chance to get the rebound, the ball gets knocked loose, and Johnson hits the three.

As soon as you're finished shooting, you have to go into the edit room and choose all of the shots that you're going to commit to because the visual effects vendor has to get it because they'll spend months on it. So, you're editing out of sequence before you've gotten a film for the movie and the performances.

The study of the amino acid sequence around the disulphide bonds of the immunoglobulins was my own short-cut to the understanding of antibody diversity.

The Sept. 6 call, his failure to remember that, really damaged his credibility. That sequence is going to affect the jury's consideration of whether or not he had the intent to commit the other offenses he's charged with.

I've played 'The Wizard of Oz' for my kids, but by today's standards, it seems really long. I don't know if there's enough action in it for them. And there's the whole black-and-white sequence in the beginning where she's on a farm. It takes a while to get to the colored part, and then it gets more exciting, and things start to happen.

On The X-Files we shoot out of sequence every day, and sometimes we're shooting three different episodes at one time, so I'm used to that.

Actually, it's just the opposite. Stuart is still the main guy, obviously, but he now draws more from the group than ever. In the old days, people would come in with their finished songs. Now, everyone in the group contributes ideas ? a chord sequence or a riff or a rhythm or anything.

Probably the most difficult things were my favorite parts. The make-up and the big fight sequence at the end of the movie were very difficult but really fun and challenging.

Problems aren't necessarily the hardest climbs, but they're the hardest sequence of moves. For instance, sometimes you have to jump between moves.

This year we will give out sequence cards at each registry to prevent queue jumpers.

This sequence deletes the driver from the Windows Registry so that even though its image is still present on disk, the I/O system will not load it during subsequent boots,

This is an unfortunate sequence of events but also part of the business. Rig failures do occur at times and are out of our control, we don't know at this point how long the delay will be until we resume drilling operations but we are not expecting it to be too long. The positive news here is that the logs show us encouraging evidence that we are in a good reservoir that needs to be exploited and we plan on doing so once this issue is resolved.

In China, there's no such thing as an informal meeting. We had meetings where they rolled out the red carpet, literally. Everybody has name cards, there's a sequence of who speaks when, there are large banners and flowers. That's just the way they do things, very formal.

The ball can change hands a thousand-plus times, but it will never lose that DNA. The chance of replicating this exact DNA sequence is one in 33 trillion, so it's virtually impossible.

It turns out chimps have the same (genetic) sequence as that family with the speech deficit.

I want to find the time sequence of events, which I still don't know.

exists for him chiefly as a body in a sequence of hotel rooms.

At the same time, I realized a very strong contemporary narrative was needed. Without that, the movie would end with the shower sequence in Psycho.

That sequence (with the three consecutive blocked shots), even though they ended up scoring, and Yao coming to help on Andre Miller ? those things are inspiring. And you can tell by the reaction of everybody, the team, the paying customers, that stuff is inspiring.

They delay and may go to (another) school and in four months get eight or 10 core course requirements. And within that sequence you might be taking Algebra I and II and geometry, which doesn't make sense (that) you could fulfill those (at the same time).

It will take either a sharp sequence of rate increases ... or a significant reversal of rate hikes ... to move the gold market in a meaningful way at this point.

In the sequence where they fly off the Hong Kong building, everybody is convinced it has to be CGI or a composite shot, but that's all real.

Clearly, if we'd had the kind of computer graphics capability then that we have now, the Star Gate sequence would be much more complex than flat planes of light and color.

Illumination is the purpose of life; of the recurring sequence of birth and death.

Investigators will closely examine the maintenance records to determine any information that helps us understand the flight load history of the aircraft, any repairs made to this area of the wing or any other historical information that helps us determine the sequence of events that lead to this tragic accident.

But, in addition, there is, all through the tragedy, a constant alternation of rises and falls in this tension or in the emotional pitch of the work, a regular sequence of more exciting and less exciting sections.

But it's been kind of a sequence of events you know those sorts of things: you meet people and things happen, without thinking about it.

Genetics is in pretty deep weeds right now because we put billions of dollars into basic scientific research to sequence the human genome and very little in the transitional aspects of moving it into health care.

The two-steps-forward, one-step-back sequence is not at all uncommon for the Consumer Confidence Index during the early stages of an economic recovery.

These studies resulted eventually in a complete sequence analysis of the complex from several species, and in the atomic resolution structure of the F catalytic domain of the enzyme from bovine mitochondria, giving new insights into how ATP is made in the biological world.

It kind of throws things off. You're used to your regular sequence of events, and this messes everything up.

It's amazing we can have an outbreak in one place, then some five years later, have the virus show up again -- but with virtually the same kind of genetic sequence as the first virus,

It was kind of an amazing sequence of events.

The genetic code describes the way in which a sequence of twenty or more things is determined by a sequence of four things of a different type.

The essence of play is that the sequence of actions is fluid and scattered.

The exact sequence of what's happening here is unique.

The main thing you are seeing here today is the decision to put together an assembly sequence that allows us to have very high confidence we will finish the space station by the time the shuttle must be retired. It's the same station. The end product is very much as we envisioned it.

The complete sequence of the 1918 virus, demonstrating its avian origin, and focusing on those mutations that differentiate avian from human strains will be immensely helpful as we try to understand the factors that govern the epidemic behavior of the current crop of avian H5 viruses.

The dailies that I saw were the sequence where they are in the street and he is trying to teach him how to look at a woman basically. I liked it.

Carelessness is inexcusable, and merits the inevitable sequence.

All Jill did was what she does best; she froze the defender and made the girl fall down trying to defend her. I think that whole sequence was what the team was waiting for. They needed to see someone step up inside that high-pressure environment. Everyone realized afterwards that if we could play with them, we can play with anyone.

The true scientist no longer attempts to disprove the pull of gravity, or the rotation of the earth, or the motion of heavenly bodies, or the sequence of the seasons, or man's need of food and water, or the function of the heart.

It's taking the animals several seconds to run around, so this replay could be sending that information back through several stages and rewarding a long sequence of actions. It's that long sequence that is new.
