I think that there's something that I still like about the fact of a package, like the latest report from somebody. Okay, this is what they're up to now this is what they're doing who's working with them?

More quotes by Brian Eno
I often say to people that producing is the best paid form of cowardice. When you produce things you almost always get credit, if it's a good record, but you hardly ever get the blame if it's not! You don't really take responsibility for your work.
Brian Eno
Honor thy error as a hidden intention.
Brian Eno
The smart thing in the art world is to have one good idea and never have another.
Brian Eno
I love the sort of ambivalence of this, the ambiguity of something - being, for instance, in a quite busy Mexican restaurant with one of these very gentle tracks playing I remember as being particularly nice.
Brian Eno
I think the idea that people walk around to music is very interesting. They are actually creating the soundtrack to their lives as they walk around to it.
Brian Eno
I have these headphones, which pretty much exclude everything else so that you can really completely control the sound that you're hearing. I don't use them very much, I have to say. I very rarely listen on headphones.
Brian Eno
Human development thus far has been fueled and guided by the feeling that things could be, and are probably going to be, better.
Brian Eno
For me it's always contingent on getting a sound-the sound always suggests what kind of melody it should be. So it's always sound first and then the line afterwards.
Brian Eno
If something is good, you must torture it mercilessly until it is either dead or great.
Brian Eno
Whenever there's a new music, there's a new way of listening. And whenever there's a new way of listening, there are new musics that follow from that. And people start listening differently - that can either mean in different places or at different volumes or in different social groups or through different technologies.
Brian Eno
I take sounds and change them into words.
Brian Eno
I enjoy working with complicated equipment. A lot of my things started just with a rhythm box, but I feed it through so many things that what comes out sounds very complex and rich.
Brian Eno
Avant-garde music is sort of research music. You're glad someone's done it but you don't necessarily want to listen to it.
Brian Eno
In the wake of the events of 11 September 2001, it now seems clear that the shock of the attacks was exploited in America.
Brian Eno
American television really is pathetic.
Brian Eno
In art, you CAN crash your plane and walk away from it
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
Attention is what creates value. Artworks are made as well by how people interact with them - and therefore by what quality of interaction they can inspire.
Brian Eno
It's amazing how quickly people get used to bad quality.
Brian Eno
With all fashion, what we do is play at being somebody else. We play at inhabiting another kind of world.
Brian Eno
