I am a leader by default, only because nature does not allow a vacuum.
Desmond Tutu
Image
Every student of physics knows the axiom 'nature abhors a vacuum.' A little known corollary is that 'rowing coaches detest sending their crews in early.' Coaches will always find something to fill the end-of-practice vacuum.
Brad Alan Lewis
Image
We designers, we don't work in a vacuum. We need business people. We are not the fine artists we are often confused with.
Dieter Rams
Image
As pissed as a fart in a vacuum cleaner.
Britney Spears
Image
I think we have to get NATO to go into the Middle East with us, in addition to surrounding nations, and we have to knock the hell out of ISIS, and we have to do it fast, when ISIS formed in this vacuum created by Barack Obama and Secretary [Hillary] Clinton.
Donald Trump

The vacuum created by a failure to communicate will quickly be filled with rumor, misrepresentations, drivel, and poison.
C. Northcote Parkinson
Image
Success doesn't happen in a vacuum. You’re only as good as the people you work with and the people you work for.
Casey Kasem
Image
When you take a shower in space, you have to press the water onto your body to clean yourself, and then you gotta vacuum it off.
Ace Frehley
Image
Nature does abhor a vacuum, and when you begin moving out of your life what you do not want, you automatically are making way for what you do want. By letting go of the lesser, you automatically make room for your greater good to come in.
Catherine Ponder
Image
There are two kinds of people in the world - those who have a horror of a vacuum and those with a horror of the things that fill it. Translated into domestic interiors, this means people who live with, and without, clutter.
Ada Louise Huxtable
Image
The soundest argument will produce no more conviction in an empty head than the most superficial declamation as a feather and a guinea fall with equal velocity in a vacuum.
Charles Caleb Colton
Image
Underground and alternative comics existed in a vacuum for years, where money really wasn't an issue. No one would get into doing a black-and-white comic because they thought it might be a route to riches.
Adrian Tomine
Image
I don't like to be walking around in a vacuum, lost in my own thoughts. I'm much better with information.
Christian Slater
Image
The average Christian is so cold and so contented with His wretched condition that there is no vacuum of desire into which the blessed Spirit can rush in satisfying fullness.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Image
Shotgunning anybody in this room would be the moral equivalent of killing a car, a Barbie doll, a vacuum cleaner. We're all such products.
Chuck Palahniuk
Image
In all of us there is a hunger, marrow-deep, to know our heritage- to know who we are and where we have come from. Without this enriching knowledge, there is a hollow yearning. No matter what our attainments in life, there is still a vacuum, an emptiness, and the most disquieting loneliness.
Alex Haley
Image
Art is essentially communication. It doesn't exist in a vacuum. That's why people make art, so other people can relate to it.
Conor Oberst
Image
REALITY, n. The dream of a mad philosopher. That which would remain in the cupel if one should assay a phantom. The nucleus of a vacuum.
Ambrose Bierce
Image
Anger is not a real feeling. Every time in my life I've ever been angry, it's because I was scared, or because I was sad and I didn't know it. Anger doesn't just come out of a vacuum.
Damon Lindelof
Image
There's nothing that you like in this world that wasn't influenced by a bunch of key things nothing came completely clean out of a vacuum.
Andrew Stanton
Image
A choice is the root of all morality. Without choice, one can have no moral code. In a vacuum bereft of alternatives, there can be no values. And without values, there can be no reason for a code of ethics. What gives our lives meaning is which alternatives we choose. If we have no options, if we can take but one path, we are by definition slaves.
Dave Galanter

My personal belief is we should not bow to any object. But Islam was aware of this human weakness and fulfilled that need through Haj to kiss a stone. A stone is a stone but the vacuum was filled and it became the holiest object. I have performed Haj and seen the devotion of people braving stampedes only to kiss that stone.
Asghar Ali Engineer
Image
Deep down the consciousness of mankind is one. This is a virtual certainty because even in the vacuum matter is one and if we don't see this, it's because we are blinding ourselves to it.
David Bohm
Image
Sorrow has the fortunate peculiarity that it preys upon itself. It dies of starvation. Since it is essentially an interruption of habits, it can be replaced by new habits. Constituting, as it does, a void, it is soon filled up by a real horror vacuum.
