To think that the new economy is over is like somebody in London in 1830 saying the entire industrial revolution is over because some textile manufacturers in Manchester went broke. ~ Alvin Toffler
Future Shock quotes by Alvin Toffler
Anyone nit-picking enough to write a letter of correction to an editor doubtless deserves the error that provoked it. ~ Alvin Toffler
Future Shock quotes by Alvin Toffler
Oftentimes she wondered what had happened to super 8. Sure, it made perfect sense that nobody wanted the hassle of spending money on a three-minute cartridge of film and threading it through a projector, but though digital cameras were convenient and cheap, Mandy didn't care. Super 8 had integrity, it wasn't just nostalgia, it was art, it was history, it was a little recording medium that somehow possessed the power to evoke lost memories, to turn back time, and there was something dazzling about waiting excitedly for a reel of film to come back in its yellow and red Kodak envelope, eating buttered popcorn while the projector paraded life's best moments, and capturing something beautiful in only three minutes. ~ Rebecca McNutt
Future Shock quotes by Rebecca McNutt
Future shock is a sickness which comes from too much change in too short a time. It's the feeling that nothing is permanent anymore. ~ Orson Welles
Future Shock quotes by Orson Welles
To survive, to avert what we have termed future shock, the individual must become infinitely more adaptable and capable than ever before. We must search out totally new ways to anchor ourselves, for all the old roots - religion, nation, community, family, or profession - are now shaking under the hurricane impact of the accelerative thrust. It is no longer resources that limit decisions, it is the decision that makes the resources. ~ Alvin Toffler
Future Shock quotes by Alvin Toffler
Future shock is the disorientation that affects an individual, a corporation, or a country when he or it is overwhelmed by change and the prospect of change ... we are in collision with tomorrow. ~ Alvin Toffler
Future Shock quotes by Alvin Toffler
The next major explosion is going to be when genetics and computers come together. I'm talking about an organic computer - about biological substances that can function like a semiconductor. ~ Alvin Toffler
Future Shock quotes by Alvin Toffler
The Freaks are coming. ~ J.O. Young
Future Shock quotes by J.O. Young
Meditation is simply awareness without any effort, an effortless alertness; it does not need any technique. But your mind is so full of thoughts, so full of dreams, so much of the past, so much of the future - it is not here and now, and awareness has to be here and now. The techniques are needed to help you to cut your roots from the past, to cut your dreams from the future, and to keep you in this moment as if only this moment exists. Then there is no need of any technique.

After Shiva's Vigyan Bhairava Tantra, in these five or ten thousand years, nobody has developed a single method.

The cathartic methods are simply to throw all your impatience, your speediness, your hurry, your repressions. ~ Osho
Future Shock quotes by Osho
I could definitely see myself making a serious movie or a drama in the future. ~ Adam Carolla
Future Shock quotes by Adam Carolla
The future is mysterious and frightening to you now, but in the end all will be well. There will be great happiness and great sorrow, you will have a family, you will find yourself capable of things you cannot now imagine. But you will persevere, and one day you will look around yourself and know that your life is good and that you are, in spite of all your early fears, happy. ~ Sara Donati
Future Shock quotes by Sara Donati
And if you were a very sophisticated con artist, what would you do to convince people that you were from the future? What benefits would that give you? For us, it's also a question of, "Is she or isn't she?" That's really a major part of the movie. ~ Zal Batmanglij
Future Shock quotes by Zal Batmanglij
The fighter loses more than his pride in the fight; he loses part of his future. He's a step closer to the slum he came from. ~ Floyd Patterson
Future Shock quotes by Floyd Patterson
My philosophy is to take one day at a time. I don't worry about the future. Tomorrow is even out of sight for me. ~ Bobby Darin
Future Shock quotes by Bobby Darin
I imagined a time when being gay is as unquestioned and un-judged as is having blue eyes. Some might call it fantasy or science fiction. I'd like to think it's the future. ~ Missouri Vaun
Future Shock quotes by Missouri Vaun
We thought of the poor, at that time, as quite divorced from us, who were not poor. By the exercise of one's charity, life could be made all right. You would always have the poor with you, they were the unfortunate, and you made donations. You could handle them. It was mildly unpleasant, but not fundamentally upsetting. Now, for the first time, we face the dreadful reality that we are not separated. They are us. They are something we have made. There is no conceivable way today to say: Fish, and you'll be all right. In hurt, in anguish, in shock, we are becoming aware that it is ourselves, who have to be found wanting, not the poor. ~ Studs Terkel
Future Shock quotes by Studs Terkel
The biggest shock of your life is when you first make a record and go to a show and then people start singing the words. Because it occurs to you that they've listened to it! ~ Nigel Godrich
Future Shock quotes by Nigel Godrich
Animals are molded by natural forces they do not comprehend. To their minds there is no past and no future. There is only the everlasting present of a single generation, its trails in the forest, its hidden pathways in the the air and in the sea. There is nothing in the Universe more alone than Man. He has entered into the strange world of history. ~ Loren Eiseley
Future Shock quotes by Loren Eiseley
We live trapped, between the churned-up and examined past and a future that waits for our work. ~ Anna Freud
Future Shock quotes by Anna Freud
As a child, I didn't know what they mean by 'to die.' So I grew up in a place where people used to die all the time, but a child is not allowed to see a dead body. When you ask, 'Where is so-and so?' you're told, 'He's gone to another world where we all go to live in the future.' ~ Emmanuel Jal
Future Shock quotes by Emmanuel Jal
People respond when you tell them there is a great future in front of you, you can leave your past behind. ~ Joel Osteen
Future Shock quotes by Joel Osteen
The work of art of the future will be the construction of a passionate life. ~ Raoul Vaneigem
Future Shock quotes by Raoul Vaneigem
No reflection was to be allowed now, not one glance was to be cast back; not even one forward. Not one thought was to be given either to the past or the future. The first was a page so heavenly sweet, so deadly sad, that to read one line of it would dissolve my courage and break down my energy. The last was an awful blank, something like then world when the deluge was gone by. ~ Charlotte Bronte
Future Shock quotes by Charlotte Bronte
I often wonder whether real conversation in real time may eventually give way to these sanitized and easier screen dialogues, in much the same way as killing, skinning and butchering an animal to eat has been replaced by the convenience of packages of meat on the supermarket shelf ... Perhaps future generations will recoil with similar horror at the messiness, unpredictability and immediate personal involvement of a three-dimensional, real-time interaction. ~ Susan Greenfield, Baroness Greenfield
Future Shock quotes by Susan Greenfield, Baroness Greenfield
The ablest administrators do not merely draw logical conclusions from the array of facts of the past which their expert assistants bring to them, they have a vision of the future. ~ Mary Parker Follett
Future Shock quotes by Mary Parker Follett
If I wasted my time trying to be like everybody else when I was 10 and 11, I wouldn't be me today. So if you are gonna be the future rockstars, the future somebody, whatever you wanna be then you're wasting your time trying to be somebody else, because you'll never get to you. ~ Pink
Future Shock quotes by Pink
Scarcity of future is an abundance of past. Scarcity of past is an abundance of future. What do you put your attention on? ~ Meir Ezra
Future Shock quotes by Meir Ezra
When you treat a person right in the present they turn out better in the future. ~ Stacy Snapp-Killian Aka StacyK
Future Shock quotes by Stacy Snapp-Killian Aka StacyK
Life on the run was filled with dreams, some at night during sleep, real dreams, and some when the mind was awake but drifting. Most were terrifying, the nightmares of the shadows growing bolder and larger. Others were pleasant wishes of a rosy future, free of the past. These were rare, Patrick had learned. Life on the run was life in the past. There was no closure ~ John Grisham
Future Shock quotes by John Grisham
At the Rodgers that night, the president all but anointed Hamilton as the keeper of the flame. His "primary message," he said, was to remind people of the need to keep hoping and to work together, but "this performance undoubtedly described it better than I ever could." The most important affinity that Hamilton will carry into its future isn't a specific message, though, political or otherwise: It's an underlying belief in stories, and their power to change the world.
Good community organizer that he is, the president knows that stories can be an engine for empathy, and a way to show people what they share. It's why he introduced himself, in that first big speech in 2004, by telling his own story. In the years to come, some of the many, many kids who are going to see and even perform Hamilton will be newly inspired to tell their stories too. Every time they do, the newly kaleidoscopic America will understand itself a little more.
"I can do that," they'll say. And if they're like Alexander Hamilton, they'll add, "And I can do it better. ~ Jeremy McCarter
Future Shock quotes by Jeremy McCarter
Sometimes in order to appreciate your future, you must remember the past. ~ Dennis E. Adonis
Future Shock quotes by Dennis E. Adonis
Maybe it's that the past exists purely inside me. ... I've never cared about growing old, but right now, I do, slightly. It's not just that you have so much less future, but you also lose so much of your past, one death at a time. ~ Katarina Bivald
Future Shock quotes by Katarina Bivald
Make a choice. Right now. Are you going to change your life or remain where you are? If you have decided to remain where you are, come back to this question in the future. If you have decided to change, be firm with your decision, do not let yourself or anyone else change your mind. This is your path now, the path of positive self-change. I cannot tell you how you must invoke change to your own life but I can say this will be the most beneficial journey you will ever make. ~ Avina Celeste
Future Shock quotes by Avina Celeste
I like marriage, family life and I wish to get married again. But opting out of an unhappy marriage was a duty toward myself & my future. ~ Rossana Condoleo
Future Shock quotes by Rossana Condoleo
Give the young half a chance and they will create their own future, they will even create their own heaven and earth. ~ Ellen Glasgow
Future Shock quotes by Ellen Glasgow
What sense is there in continuing when one has seen the future? ~ Alan Lightman
Future Shock quotes by Alan Lightman
When it came to football there was a certain age where I realized that my future in football was being a grease spot on the side of some bigger player. ~ Leigh Steinberg
Future Shock quotes by Leigh Steinberg
Ascent is neither the lone journey of Jesus nor the abstracted elevation of the soul, but is the future for an embodied humanity that is copresent with Jesus and his Father. ~ Julie Canlis
Future Shock quotes by Julie Canlis
The future is like the daytime moon, a diffident but faithful companion, so elegant as to be almost invisible, an inconspicuous marvel. ~ Robert Grudin
Future Shock quotes by Robert Grudin
