Tipping Quotes

Maybe happiness was an hourglass already running out, the grains tipping, sifting past each other. Maybe it was a state of mind Picture Quote #1

Achieving the summit of a mountain was tangible, immutable, concrete. The incumbent hazards lent the activity a seriousness of purpose that was sorely missing from the rest of my life. I thrilled in the fresh perspective that came from the tipping the ordinary plane of existence on end Picture Quote #1

These 3 topics will always generate 100 comments of irrational/ridiculous people: Taxes, tipping, and spending on weddings Picture Quote #1

It’s hard to see a river all at once, especially in the mountains. Down on the plains, rivers run in their course as straightforward as time, channeled toward the sea. But up in the headwaters, a river isn’t a point where you stand. In the beginnings of the river, you teeter on the edge of a hundred tiny watersheds where one drop of water is always tipping the balance from one stream to another. History changes with each tiny event, shaping an outcome that we can only fully grasp in hindsight. And that view changes as we move farther downstream Picture Quote #1

We used to go around tipping outhouses over, or turning over corn shocks on Halloween. Anything to be mean Picture Quote #1

Is it 10 years, 20, 50 before we reach that tipping point where climate change becomes irreversible? Nobody can know. There’s clearly a probability distribution. We need to ensure this planet, and we need to do it quickly Picture Quote #1

I always get involved with the environment because once you go past the tipping point with the environment, you don’t get it back Picture Quote #1

I drove an electric car for seven years because of its advanced technology, not because I have any concerns about energy resources. I have none at all. And when environmentalists say that global warming is dangerous, unprecedented and that we’ll have a tipping point for atmospheric carbon dioxide, it’s just nonsense Picture Quote #1

The end of the world was supposed to be gradual. There was supposed to be warning. A long, slow slide. What we got was punctuated equilibrium: a stately wobbling, then a sudden tipping point. There was plenty of warning, I suppose. We just weren’t paying attention Picture Quote #1

For every reader who dies today, a viewer is born, and we seem to be witnessing... the final tipping balance Picture Quote #1

The tipping point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire Picture Quote #1

I do genuinely believe that the political system is not linear. When it reaches a tipping point fashioned by a critical mass of opinion, the slow pace of change we’re used to will no longer be the norm. I see a lot of signs every day that we’re moving closer and closer to that tipping point Picture Quote #1
