Once energy problems gain traction, there will be a large new class of economic losers, and consequently a lot of social turbulence.

It's harder to gain relevance or traction. But I'm of the opinion that if something's really good - not pretty good, but really, really good - people will hear about it.

It might be different for people that are A-list actors, but a lot of us really look at what's offered to us and look for something that has some traction with other people. But, it's not like I read 100 scripts a week, and then pick and choose. Maybe some actors do. I certainly don't do that.

In the 1990s I began to study the prospects that life could spread from Mars to Earth or maybe Earth to Mars and that maybe life began on Mars and came to Earth, and that idea seemed to have a lot of traction and is now accepted as very plausible.

So round and round you go, spinning mental wheels and nowhere finding anyplace to get traction. What the hell...is it?

The car is undoubtedly quicker and more balanced. The traction and braking can still be improved a bit but there's been a good evolution already from three weeks ago.

With a larger wheel, you have more contact with the ground, so you have better traction whether you're braking or cornering or any of that stuff. Also, with bigger wheels, once you get them up to speed, they roll faster.

Repression is good for cultural achievement. Let's face it. What are gay boys going to be like? I always like to say the 19th-century gay boy was Oscar Wilde, the 20th-century gay boy was Stonewall and ACT UP. And in the 21st century, we have blocking people on Grindr. That's what we've accomplished. Without some kind of traction.

Sometimes perfecting the one thing can be the enemy of getting any traction on anything else.
Jay Roach

I think my major challenge, very frankly, is to maintain the traction, ... I've seen many campaigns here in the state of New Hampshire look good for a while, and then the air comes out of the balloon.
John McCain

If you destroy the credibility of those people or institutions that could undermine your own, you create an opportunity for your voice, however irresponsible or misleading it may be, to gain traction.
John Yarmuth

Just as liberalism is the main force that drives conservatism and maintains its popularity in some quarters, conservatism is the reason liberalism continues to enjoy the traction that it does in our poor civilization.

There is no point in retaining a brand equity if it has no traction with consumers, or has no likelihood of doing so.
Nick Cooper

I bought a new book, '100 new ways to make love'. I ended up in traction - it was a misprint.
Rodney Dangerfield
Image
If I leave you alone, and you leave me alone, we are both better off. And I will leave you alone if you leave me alone. And there is a lot of traction to be gained from that.
William G. Kline

The stage of investing that I do is seed stage, so it's really early. Here's a pair of founders who maybe have a prototype. They have a little bit of traction, maybe one employee, tops. At that stage, you really, really can only evaluate a company based on those founders and what they've been able to build. It's very, very team driven.
Alexis Ohanian
Image
An innovation will get traction only if it helps people get something that they're already doing in their lives done better.
Clayton Christensen
Image
Words without action are like wheels without traction. It is how you live that counts.
