Ultimately, entertainment and all the tangents related to it, will come down to one little gadget in our pockets, which is our mobile phones. And such will be the impact of this that they will not just influence but even dictate the content of all the other mediums of entertainment.

As it turns out, one of the biggest choices we have doing the show is deciding the tangents we are allowed to take, the stuff that we see along the way. We're allowed to explore the world at large on these things; the urban-legend aspect of it is just kind of an excuse.

American Entertainer

Martin Filler

Although there are countless tangents that a career in the building arts can take, it is nonetheless most unusual for a major architectural practice to emerge once a firm's principals are well into what is loosely called middle age.

American Critic

Barbara Corcoran

Most great entrepreneurs I know are nothing like the other kids. They're almost like tangent lines - those lines that seem to go nowhere. Nothing connects them, until they get out in the real world. Then they connect just fine.

American Businesswoman

Mel Giedroyc

We love live because of the roughness round the edges, the excitement, the madness, and stuff going off on all sorts of weird tangents. It's like hosting a jolly in your house. We're welcoming people in and giving them snacks.

English Entertainer

Geoffrey Rush

I was not the young heroic model for 'Hamlet.' I tended to play those characters that orbited around them: the rogues and the rat bags and the idiots and the fools and the clowns that sway the plot somehow from a tangent.

Australian Actor

Barbara Hepworth

Halfway through any work, one is often tempted to go off on a tangent. Once you have yielded, you will be tempted to yield again and again... Finally, you would only produce something hybrid.

English Artist

William Hurt

The thrill of acting is the discovery part, so it all changes, but it has to change in a way that fits what is written. You can't just wander off and get interested in your own tangent.

American Actor

Buddy Hackett

A comedian sees the world bent. I'm tangent to the circle.

American Comedian

June Brown

I'm always doing that, going off at a tangent.

English Actress

Used in geometry to describe a precise mathematical concept, often in discussions about shapes.

Geometry Relevance

In a tangent to a curve, the point of contact is unique and does not cross the curve.

Unique Intersection

Describes items in conversation or study that are related to or derived from the concept of a tangent.

Mathematically Linked

Indicates a sudden shift in conversation away from the main subject, often unexpectedly.

Conversation Shift

In formal discussions, going off on a tangent can be seen as off-topic or distracting.

Avoid in Formal Talks

A tangent can disrupt the flow of ideas or arguments, potentially causing confusion or disengagement.

Focus Disruption

Sometimes a tangent can lead to creative ideas or solutions not considered before.

Unexpected Creativity

Used to describe thoughts or information only loosely connected to the current topic, often in academic texts.

Indirect Relevance

Be aware, tangential points can make listeners lose track of the main discussion.

Why eyewitnesses get it...

 used to sit and look up at the sky and say, "What are those twinkling lights?" They built the first curriculum, but we've lost sight of those wondrous questions. We've brought it down to the tangent of an angle. But that's not sexy enough. The way you would put it to a nine-year-old is to say,

 Indulge me in a momentary tangent. How do we know about atomic structure? We can't see protons, neutrons, or electrons. So, we do a bunch of experiments and develop a model for what we think is there. Then we do some more experiments and see if they agree with the model.

The uncertain location...

 When you present those to people who are not well-versed in those aspects of science and that, they become salamanders in the noonday sun. It's like talking about the tangent of the visual angle, all right? Their eyes just glaze over, all right?
