Those who refused to respond to the new stimulus would perish. Adapt or perish.

Philip K. Dick

Staying where you now are, you must perish; coming to Christ, you can but perish; coming to Christ, no one ever did perish; while you sit still and starve, there is bread enough and to spare in your Father's house. Will you return?

Samuel I. Prime

Our adaptation to the natural forces is a question of existence or non-existence. We cannot transform the universe or nature so that they adapt themselves to us; on the contrary, we must adapt ourselves to nature and her laws.

Edmond Bordeaux Szekely

We must alter theory to adapt it to nature, but not nature to adapt it to theory.?

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.

Matt Millen

It seems to be a law of nature, inflexible and inexorable, that those who will not risk cannot win.

John Paul Jones

The dinosaurs disappeared because they could not adapt to their changing environment. We shall disappear if we cannot adapt to an environment that now contains spaceships, computers - and thermonuclear weapons.

Arthur C. Clarke
