Constants are widely known for the detestable practice of changing their values; we should prepare ourselves against the consequences of such fickleness -- Bertrand Meyer
Loving Duran Duran has been one of the constants of my life, but I have no idea what they would sound like if the women in my life stopped loving them. I guess I'll never know. I could claim that Duran Duran taught me everything I know about women, but that's not exactly accurate: I learned it from listening to girls talk about Duran Duran. -- Rob Sheffield
There are three constants in life... change, choice and principles. -- Stephen Covey
I primarily live in New York City, a place that is about constants, not letting up and not stopping. -- Waris Ahluwalia

Movement has been one of the few constants in my life, and I always feel a great sense of optimism when I set off to a new place. -- Conor Oberst
If gravity were somewhat stronger or weaker, stars wouldn't exist, and neither would you. And the same can be said of other constants of physics. Several have to be 'just right.' -- Seth Shostak
In a few years, all great physical constants will have been approximately estimated, and that the only occupation which will be left to men of science will be to carry these measurements to another place of decimals. -- James C. Maxwell
Elementary considerations led me to the conclusion that a medium, composed of layers of different dielectric constants, must behave as a uniaxial crystal if it is assumed that the layer thicknesses are only a fraction of a wave-length. -- Karl Ferdinand Braun
In the course of my stay there, I also showed how one could analyse the experimental kinetic curves for the reaction of haemoglobin with carbon dioxide or oxygen by simulations in the computer, and so fit the rate constants. -- Aaron Klug
The Doctor' is the kind of character - because the guest cast is changing all the time, there are very few constants in the show, so the 'Doctor'- when you're there, you're in it a lot. You're speaking a lot. -- David Tennant
I always thought I'd go to university and then get a real job, you know. Now I want to do stuff that really makes me happy. Although I'm still trying to work out what that is. But for me there are always constants. -- Martin Henderson
I guess law was always interesting to me because you deal with constants. I like to deal with constants, abstracts, constants and reason and ration, rational approaches to things. I don't know, I never really thought why I wanted to study law. But if you ask me whether I would do it again, absolutely. -- Mohamed ElBaradei

My only two constants are to challenge myself and to try not to repeat myself. -- Cillian Murphy
If anything runs deeper than a mathematician's love of variables, it's a scientist's love of constants. -- Sam Kean
War is one of the constants of history, and it has not diminished with civilization or democracy. -- Will Durant
The constants that I look for are a love of light and a determination to trace some moral chain of being. -- John Cheever
In fact, if one considers the possible constants and laws that could have emerged, the odds against a universe that produced life like ours are immense. -- Stephen Hawking
Universal coding for computers is sought that uses relative addresses and a pseudocode and that assembles and translates, printing out a directory of final addresses of key commands, variables, and constants. -- Saul Gorn
I'll grant the random access to my heart, Thoul't tell me all the constants of thy love; And so we two shall all love's lemmas prove And in our bound partition never part. -- Stanislaw Lem
They're constants, aren't they?" ... "Books are. That's why we like them so much. They seem immutable. They're not, of course. Not from the author's first draft to the tenth printing, but they seem like it. -- C.E. Murphy
