Lift Drag Coefficient

Famous quotes containing the words lift and/or drag:

    You had gained,
    you outleapt them;
    a sudden, swift lift of the reins,
    a sudden, swift, taut grip of the reins,
    as suddenly loosed,
    you had gained.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    Keeping up with the Joneses was a full-time job with my mother and father. It was not until many years later when I lived alone that I realized how much cheaper it was to drag the Joneses down to my level.
    Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)
