Making 'Sweetback' took an exorbitant amount of energy and time.
It is no doubt technically possible to study metabolism and respiration of fishes during swimming at a constant rate, and of certain insects and birds during flight, and to obtain information similar to that obtained on man during work on a bicycle ergometer or a treadmill.
It takes so much energy and time to make one song perfect.
A runner needs not just to be skinny but - more specifically - to have skinny calves and ankles, because every extra pound carried on your extremities costs more than a pound carried on your torso. That's why shaving even a few ounces off a pair of running shoes can have a significant effect.
It's hard to be mad, it's a lot of energy.
Energy wise, playing the drums was a lot of fun; I just felt like it was a natural fit for me.
The enormous energy of the twentieth century, enough to drive the planet into a new orbit around a happier star, was being expended to maintain this immense motionless pause.
It's good to get out there and get a nice sweat.
The Isaac Chilemba fight was draining.
I have, I think to do a play a year is very good if you can afford the time and the energy because it's difficult to do, it's really the actors medium of course, because you're really out there and nobody's yelling cut so, yeah I have.
The lads really ran their socks into the ground.
When you sing a song the way I sing it, you have to use your whole body. It's almost like working out.
Every pound of muscle burns approximately 50 calories every day, just doing nothing.
I love working and I feel satisfied when I know I have literally given all the energy that I have. That being said, work is not my No. 1 priority. I don't think it can come at the expense of your family, your friends and your 'significant other' if you have one.
Did I think about the risks? Of course I did. Anyone who says otherwise is not being completely honest. The amount of energy it takes to bring a spacecraft to orbital speed, and the forces it endures on re-entry, makes risk impossible to avoid.
I burned sixty calories. That should take care of a peanut I had in 1962.
A special ability means a heavy expenditure of energy in a particular direction, with a consequent drain from some other side of life.

Sometimes I had to spend a whole day mixing a boiling mass with a heavy iron rod nearly as large as myself. I would be broken with fatigue at the day's end. Other days, on the contrary, the work would be a most minute and delicate fractional crystallization, in the effort to concentrate the radium.
Higher energy prices act like a tax. They reduce the disposable income people have available for other things after they've paid their energy bills.
Right now my main aim is not to get injured any more. I am a little bit afraid of running and sliding because the ankle was so painful. But I am not a person who runs a lot, who spends a lot of energy on the court. If I am mentally OK, if nothing is bothering me and I want to play, then it is fine.
Our traditional oil and gas philosophy does not have conservation as a crucial component, and we can ill afford to continue to spend billions of dollars which are not reflected in the improved human capital of our country.
Those who walk, run, or slide downhill eagerly would rather not think about the long, hard climb back up the hill again.
Our life is a combination of a certain amount of energy and a certain amount of time.
If you take a bale of hay and tie it to the tail of a mule and then strike a match and set the bale of hay on fire, and if you then compare the energy expended shortly thereafter by the mule with the energy expended by yourself in the striking of the match, you will understand the concept of amplification.
