A Quote by Brian Eno

Agressive music can only shock you once. Afterwards its impact declines. It's inevitable. — © Brian Eno
Agressive music can only shock you once. Afterwards its impact declines. It's inevitable.
The inevitable is no less a shock just because it is inevitable.
Just as the body goes into shock after a physical trauma, so does the human psyche go into shock after the impact of a major loss.
But the fact that we had to devalue by 40% at once means that Malawians are feeling the shock, the impact of that huge devaluation and particularly rural people, the poor are the ones that are going to be most affected. That is why there is the austerity plan.
Anything that you can shock somebody with. The only way to change something is to shock it. If you want your muscles to grow, you have to shock them. If you want society to change, you have to shock them.
Nobody is suggesting climate change won't negatively impact crop yields. It could. But such declines should be put in perspective.
You can cry about death and very properly so, your own as well as anybody else's. But it's inevitable, so you'd better grapple with it and cope and be aware that not only is it inevitable, but it has always been inevitable, if you see what I mean.
Most quarrels are inevitable at the time; incredible afterwards.
Declines in specific industries can never ignite a general depression. Shifts in data will cause increases in activity in one field, declines in another.
Their quarrel was no more surprising than are most quarrels — inevitable at the time, incredible afterwards.
The pity of living only once is that there is no way, ever, to be sure which sorrows are inevitable.
9/11 did not really impact me, but I remember sitting in my 6th grade math class. I remember the teachers just being in a panic and turning on our TVs and I remember the impact in the look of just disbelief and sadness and shock that was on my teacher's face.
The only way to change something is to shock it. If you want your muscles to grow, you have to shock them. If you want society to change, you have to shock them.
If we respected only what is inevitable and has a right to be, music and poetry would resound along the streets.
Christians, just like anybody else, want to have an impact on their lives. And if you can find music that helps you have an impact on your family, on your faith, on yourself, then that's the kind of music you want to listen to.
In order to produce learned fear, you take a neutral stimulus like a tone, and you pair it with an electrical shock. Tone, shock. Tone, shock. So the animal learns that the tone is bad news. But you can also do the opposite - shock it at other times, but never when the tone comes on.
Through Nic's drug addiction, I have learned that parents can bear almost anything....I shock myself with my ability to rationalize and tolerate things once unthinkable. The rationalizations escalate....It's only marijuana. He gets high only on weekends. At least he's not using hard drugs.
