Brian Eno

Brian Eno

Brian Eno
I want to make things that put me in the position of innocence, that recreate the feeling of innocence in you.
Brian Eno
For the world to be interesting, you have to be manipulating it all the time.
Brian Eno
Good teachers realise that the students are the antenna they are sensing things that the teachers don't yet sense.
Brian Eno
American television really is pathetic.
Brian Eno
The point about working is not to produce great stuff all the time, but to remain ready for when you can.
Brian Eno
When you make something you are always offering some choices and denying others.
Brian Eno
You can't really imagine music without technology.
Brian Eno
The reason conservatives cohere and radicals fight: everyone agrees about fears, no one about visions.
