When an instrument fails on stage it mocks you and must be destroyed! — © Trent Reznor
When an instrument fails on stage it mocks you and must be destroyed!
The instrument by which it [government] must act are either the AUTHORITY of the laws or FORCE. If the first be destroyed, the last must be substituted; and where this becomes the ordinary instrument of government there is an end to liberty!
Government is not a substitute for people, but simply the instrument through which they act. And if the individual fails to do his duty as a citizen, government becomes a very deadly instrument indeed.
Other people must be destroyed. In order that I might truly face the sun, the world itself must be destroyed.
Who mocks at music mocks at love.
Love as a concrete foundation for an authentically functional civilization requires the around-the-clock labors of forgiveness. Without it, Love fails, Friendship fails, Intelligence fails, Humanity: fails.
When a show fails to destroy the competition-and it can fail while attracting 20 million viewers-it is itself destroyed.
I'm the type of guy who fails and fails and fails, and then, as if failure has become sick of him, succeeds.
The production must be faithful to the line. If the production fails, my work fails.
The predominance of mind is no more than a stage in the evolution of consciousness. We need to go on to the next stage now as a matter of urgency; otherwise, we will be destroyed by the mind, which has grown into a monster.
You must never lose the awareness that in yourself you are nothing, you are only an instrument. An instrument is nothing until it is lifted.
We must not only protect the country side and save it from destruction, we must restore what has been destroyed and salvage the beauty and charm of our cities ... Once our natural splendor is destroyed, it can never be recaptured. And once man can no longer walk with beauty or wonder at nature, his spirit will wither and his sustenance be wasted.
A bird is an instrument working according to mathematical law, which instrument it is within the capacity of man to reproduce with all its movements, but not with a corresponding degree of strength, though it is deficient only in the power of maintaining equilibrium. We may therefore say that such an instrument constructed by man is lacking in nothing except the life of the bird, and this life must needs be supplied from that of man.
Towards the avoidance of a piece of verbal confusion: What is intended to be actively destroyed must first of all have been firmly grasped; what crumbles away crumbles away, but cannot be destroyed.
In standup, the feedback is instantaneous, and if it fails, you know you'll be off-stage and hiding in a short time.
But I have a new love for that glittering instrument, the human soul. It is a lovely and unique thing in the universe. It is always attacked and never destroyed - because 'Thou mayest.
The earth which sustains humanity must not be injured. It must not be destroyed!
