Patterns within patterns

The propulsion by the universality of thought is the absolute worth of civilization.~Philosophy of Right (1821)-Hegel

“Fuckin failures in a country of failures. Its nae good blamin it oan the English fir colonising us. Ah don't hate the English. They're just wankers. We are colonised by wankers. We can't even pick a decent, vibrant healthy society to be colonised by. No..we are ruled by effete arseholes. What does that make us? The lowest of the low, the scum of the earth. The most wretched servile, miserable, pathetic trash that was ever shat intae creation. Ah don't hate the English. They just git oan wis the shite thev got. Ah hate the Scots.” ― Irvine Welsh, Trainspotting

“There are only patterns, patterns on top of patterns, patterns that affect other patterns. Patterns hidden by patterns. Patterns within patterns. If you watch close, history does nothing but repeat itself. 
What we call chaos is just patterns we haven't recognized. What we call random is just patterns we can't decipher. what we can't understand we call nonsense. What we can't read we call gibberish.There is no free will. There are no variables.” ― Chuck Palahniuk, Survivor

On Zee surface

“Little flashes of sun on the surface of a cold, dark sea.” ― Jean-Paul Sartre, Nausea

incapable of seeing

“A man's admiration for absolute government is proportionate to the contempt he feels for those around him.” ― Alexis de Tocqueville

“Man is equally incapable of seeing the nothingness from which he emerges and the infinity in which he is engulfed.” ― Blaise Pascal

(16,000 hits)- crude sexual overtures

“I understand that the inventor of the bagpipes was inspired when he saw a man carrying an indignant, asthatic pig under his arm. Unfortunately, the man-made sound never equalled the purity of sound achieved by the pig.” ― Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock developed an almost-crazed obsession with her, and when she rejected his advances, he made her life a living hell both on and off the movie sets, the former model says. He bombarded her with crude sexual overtures and ruthlessly tried to control every aspect of her life.~Tippi Hedren

“I had to get out of there,” she recalls. “I was dealing with one of the most powerful men in motion pictures and it was difficult, embarrassing and insulting. He said, 'If you leave, I’ll ruin your career.’ And he did.”

Ceeing

“There is no such things as darkness, only a failure to see.” ― Malcolm Muggeridge

“A sans culotte always has his Sabre well sharpened, ready to cut off the ears of all opponents of the revolution.” Anonymous pamphlet -

superior personality

“To the Jacobins of this epoch [the French Revolution], as well as to those of our times, this popular entity constitutes a superior personality possessing attributes peculiar to the gods of never having to answer for their actions and never making a mistake. Their wishes must be humbly acceded to. The people may kill, burn, ravage, commit the most frightening cruelties, glorify their hero today and throw him into the gutter tomorrow, it is all the same; the politicians will not cease to vaunt the people's virtues and to bow to their every decision.” ― Gustave Le Bon, The Psychology of Revolution

“Ninety-three" was the war of Europe against France, and of France against Paris. And what was the Revolution? It was the victory of France over Europe, and of Paris over France. Hence the immensity of that terrible moment?, '93, greater than all the rest of the century” ― Victor Hugo, Ninety-Three

get away=get away

“Man has the right to deal with his oppressors by devouring their palpitating hearts.” ― Jean-Paul Marat

Talent? What is talent but the ability to get away with something? (Quote by - Tennessee Williams)

Robespierre

“The secret of freedom lies in educating people, whereas the secret of tyranny is in keeping them ignorant.” ― Maximilien de Robespierre

POPularity contest

Irving Berlin ~Talent is only the starting point.

“Talent is unfair and undemocratic; it's also inarguable.” ― Tricia Tunstall, Note by Note: A Celebration of the Piano Lesson

“it's all a popularity contest, which unfortunately often has more to do with good looks rather than actual talent.” ― Andrew James Pritchard

vile and despicable

“What is most vile and despicable about money is that it even confers talent. And it will do so until the end of the world.” ― Fyodor Dostoyevsky

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3XfmRZAQ-o

talent is a species

“They who lack talent expect things to happen without effort. They ascribe failure to a lack of inspiration or ability, or to misfortune, rather than to insufficient application. At the core of every true talent there is an awareness of the difficulties inherent in any achievement, and the confidence that persistence and patience something worthwhile will be realized. Thus talent is a species of vigor. (Eric Hoffer 1902-1983)”

We are drawn back

“Our passionate preoccupation with the sun, the stars and a God somewhere in outer space is a homing impulse. We are drawn back to where we came from. ” ― Eric Hoffer

do the opposite

Carolyn: Your father and I were just discussing his day at work. Why don't you tell our daughter about it, honey? Lester: Janie, today I quit my job. And then I told my boss to go fuck himself, and then I blackmailed him for almost sixty thousand dollars. Pass the asparagus.~American Beauty

There is something almost cruel about the Christian's being placed in a world which in every way wants to pressure him to do the opposite of what God bids him to do.-Soren Kierkegoard

“Nothingness lies coiled in the heart of being - like a worm.” ― Jean-Paul Sartre, Being and Nothingness

When I was young and moving fast 
Nothing slowed me down, slowed me down 
Now I let the others pass 
I've come around, come around

Seek treasure

Believe nothing, no matter where you read it or who has said it, not even if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.~Buddha

When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies? Too much sanity may be madness. To seek treasure where there is only trash. Perhaps to be practiced is madness. And madness of all, to see life as it is and not as it ought to be.~~Miguel de Cervantes, "Don Quixote"

Think of it as downsizing

[monday]-I wanted to destroy everything beautiful I'd never have. Burn the Amazon rain forests. Pump chloroflourocarbons straight up to gobble the ozone. Open the dump valves on supertankers and uncap offshore wells. I wanted to kill all the fish I couldn't afford to eat, and smother the French beaches I'd never see. I wanted the whole world to hit bottom. I really wanted to put a bullet between the eyes of every endangered panda that wouldn't screw to save its species and every whale or dolphin that gave up and ran itself aground. Don't think of it as extinction. Think of it as downsizing.~Fight Club

Choose

Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television. Choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers..... Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind numbing, spirit crushing game shows, stuffing junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pissing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked-up brats you spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life..... But why would I want to do a thing like that?~Trainspotting

Songs Of The Doomed

"We live in cheap an twisted times. ....Our leaders are low-rent Fascists and our laws are a tangle of mockeries. Recent polls indicate that the only people who feel optimistic about the future are first-year law students who expect to get rich by haggling over the ruins... and they are probably right.~Hunter S. Thompson, "Songs Of The Doomed"

But, you know...............?>

But, you know what life really is? You're born, you suck your mother's tits. You get a little older, you suck your girlfriend's tits. You get married, you suck your wife's tits. That's what life is. Life sucks.~John Ryman, "When Galaxies Collide"

Oh cheeky cheeky -----Oh naughty sneeky

“I have an idea that the only thing which makes it possible to regard this world we live in without disgust is the beauty which now and then men create out of the chaos. The pictures they paint, the music they compose, the books they write, and the lives they lead. Of all these the richest in beauty is the beautiful life. That is the perfect work of art.” ― W. Somerset Maugham, The Painted Veil

“I'm trying to go viral, but so far I'm just a sniffle” ― J.L. Madore

Your own luck

LUCK-[someone told me if you want to be lucky.... you have to make your own luck.] yestertag won on OLG lotto-Scratch tickets- $150 & $10, since june-2013 have won $500.

Yesterday’s cool can quickly become tomorrow’s frigid, as culture hounds well know. So how do we know what’s cool, and is it important to understand the early swamps from which today’s coolest cats once crawled?

a priori

“I don't believe in empirical science. I only believe in a priori truth.” ― Kurt Gödel

Fiorucci is an Italian fashion label founded by Elio Fiorucci in 1967. The first shop exposed Milan to the styles of Swinging London and American classics such as the T-shirt and jeans. By the late 1970s and early 1980s this would be reversed, and the New York store would become famous for the fashions it introduced to the United States. Known as the "daytime Studio 54",[1] it attracted trendsetters from Andy Warhol to a young Madonna

filius perditionis

“Perdition awaits at the end of a road constructed entirely from good intentions, the devil emerges from the details and hell abides in the small print.” ― Iain M. Banks, Transition

Psalm 41:9 "Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me."
"Of the kings that came after Antiochus nothing is here prophesied, for that was the most malicious mischievous enemy to the church, that was a type of the son of perdition, whom the Lord shall consume with the breath of his mouth and destroy with the brightness of his coming, and none shall help him."
 that He has guarded the disciples and "that none of them is lost but the son of perdition, that the scripture might be fulfilled." The prevailing wisdom probably is that the "son of perdition" was Judas, the fulfilled scripture Psalm 41:9

Apparatus rust

“If they substituted the word 'Lust' for 'Love' in the popular songs it would come nearer the truth.” ― Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

“Tis better to have love and lust-Than to let our apparatus rust.”
― Kurt Vonnegut, God Bless You, Dr. Kevorkian

Hey..... neighbour???

“Do you think it is a vain hope that one day people will find joy in noble deeds of light and mercy, rather than in the coarse pleasures he indulges in today -- gluttony, fornication, ostentation, boasting, and envious vying with his neighbor? I am certain this is not a vain hope and that the day will come soon.” ― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

Smoking=Musak

Smoking kills. If you're killed, you've lost a very important part of your life. ~~~ Brooke Shields

 

Jean-Jacques Nattiez~ summarizes the relativist, post-modern viewpoint:
"The border between music and noise is always culturally defined—which
implies that, even within a single society, this border does not always
pass through the same place; in short, there is rarely a consensus ...
By all accounts there is no single and intercultural universal concept
defining what music might be!

“This is just shit. It's happening. No blame. Happening and on the rise it would appear. What can we do to delay it? Probably zilch. To stop it? Likely less. But to survive it?

Try paint picture of it on wall. Drum to it. Sing to it. Dance to it. This give you handle on it." So Twister is my try. Ken Kesey in a letter to Allen Ginsberg (August 1993)”

LA is a jungle.....................

“I could hear everything, together with the hum of my hotel neon. I never felt sadder in my life.

LA is a jungle.” ― Jack Kerouac, On the Road
