Complete adaptation to environment means death. The essential point in all response is the desire to control environment. (Quote by - John Dewey)

When we allow ourselves to adapt to different situations, life is easier. (Quote by - Catherine Pulsifer)

I think every coach has to adapt to what they have, because they're what you get. You can't just go out to the player tree and pick all the great ones. That doesn't happen. You get a Barry Sanders every now and then. You get a Billy Sims every once in a while. And when you have it, you adapt to their strengths. Whoever comes in here and whoever has this job needs to adapt and will do that. (Quote by - Matt Millen)

I found out that if you are going to win games, you had better be ready to adapt. (Quote by - Scotty Bowman)

Everybody knows the Rays are a very good offensive team so the meetings prior to that series are going to be pretty advanced, the advanced scouting is going to pick up. We're not going to ambush anybody like the second half of last season. We may have to adapt. We have to be aware of adapting to what they're doing to us. (Quote by - Joe Maddon)

Play is a uniquely adaptive act, not subordinate to some other adaptive act, but with a special function of its own in human experience. (Quote by - Johan Huizinga)

Whatever there be of progress in life comes not through adaptation but through daring, through obeying the blind urge. (Quote by - Henry Miller)

Those who are more adapted to the active life can prepare themselves for contemplation in the practice of the active life, while those who are more adapted to the contemplative life can take upon themselves the works of the active life so as to become yet. (Quote by - St. Thomas Aquinas)

You operate with low noise and light, and you want them to come to you. They learn to adapt and overcome and we learn to adapt and overcome the same way. (Quote by - Dan Garibay)

Desert adapted plants, once they're established, they need very little supplemental water. Some of the other plants that we use in the desert, even if they're desert adapted, may not be native to this region, and so they may need additional water supplies. (Quote by - Mitch Basefsky)

I adapt to almost anything. The primary condition is that one of my elementary rights be respected my dignity. (Quote by - Mariana Fulger)

To adapt, is to move ahead. (Quote by - Byron Pulsifer)

Life provides me both the right and the responsibility of continuously adapting my way of thinking. (Quote by - Mariana Fulger)

I think that people who have tried to adapt games to cinema have tried to adapt a game to something that's cinematic. With 'Tomb Raider' they tried to make an Indiana Jones film, with 'Doom' they tried to make an 'Aliens' movie, and with the 'Resident Evil' movies they tried to make zombie films. (Quote by - Christophe Gans)

They call is adaptation, I call it learning. They call it circumstances, I call it practice. (Quote by - Tarun Upadhyaya)

If you live in the river you should make friends with the crocodile. (Quote by - Indian Proverb)

We'll have a different set of values, and society will adapt. That doesn't mean these changes are all good, just because we will accept them. But the 'Chicken Little' view of history isn't correct. Changes take place gradually, and people and institutions adapt. (Quote by - Robert Reischauer)

You tend to do all the exercises you enjoy, not the ones you need to do. Your body adapts to specific movement. If you always do what you enjoy, your body adapts and plateaus after about 3 to 4 weeks. But changing up your routine keeps your mind occupied, keeps you guessing, keeps your body guessing and you'll see more results. (Quote by - Michael Larson)

This approach allows us to take a broad prospective to see what kinds of biological systems are undergoing adaptation. There have been a lot of recent changes--the advent of agriculture, shifts in diet, new habitats, climatic conditions--over the past 10,000 years, and we're using these data to look for those signals of very recent adaptation. (Quote by - Jonathan Pritchard)

It's just such a switch going from rescuer to victim, in a sense. It's just about adapting and surviving. You'd be surprised what you're capable of doing when you have no other choice. (Quote by - Melinda Shiraki)

After you pray, accept, adapt and move on, .. That's what winners do. (Quote by - Ann Jillian)

Growth only occurs when you successfully adapt to change. (Quote by - summer jeirles)

The problem with this rushed approach to fitness is that the body doesn't respond to sudden exercise and unhealthy dieting in a favorable manner. In fact, people who strive to get fit at the last minute risk injuring themselves from doing too much exercise too soon. The body needs time to adapt to a new exercise program through gradual increases in duration and intensity. (Quote by - Sabrena Newton)

God has neither form nor shape under which we can know Him; when he speaks of Himself in metaphors and similes, He is adapting Himself to our foolishness, our limited capacity. (Quote by - Christina of Sweden)
