“For me, the most important thing is the element of chance that is built into a live performance. The very great drawback of recorded sound is the fact that it is always the same. No matter how wonderful a recording is, I know that I couldn't live with it--even of my own music--with the same nuances forever.” KnowsImportantMatterFactsSoundChanceMy OwnForeverWonderfulElementsBuiltPerformancesImportant ThingsNuanceDrawbacksLive Performance Author:Aaron Copland
“Reverence, human of the Earth, is the fundamental element of all existence, so it is therefore also the fundamental element of love itself, which is built on this all-embracing reverence. And since this is so in truth, it is also an impossible thing that love, once awakened and built up in truthfulness, can ever weaken again and become cold, or could transform into hate or be annihilated.” HumansEarthHateExistenceImpossibleColdElementsBuiltFundamentalsReverenceAwakenedTruthfulnessImpossible Things Author:Billy Meier
“The last element in drama is high stakes. War, of course, is life and death - survival, not only for the story's characters, but often for the society itself.

“The nation as such is not a large subject that has needs, that works, practices economy, and consumes. . . . Thus the phenomena of “national economy” . . . are, rather, the results of all the innumerable individual economic efforts in the nation and . . . must also be theoretically interpreted in this light. . . .Whoever wants to understand theoretically the phenomena of “national economy” . . . must for this reason attempt to go back to their true elements, to the singular economies in the nation, and to investigate the laws by which the former are built up from the latter.” WantNeedsReasonLightLawIndividualNationsResultsEffortPracticeEconomyEconomicSubjectsElementsBuiltFormerLatterNational Economy Author:Ralph Raico
“The business model of the conservative media is built on two elements: provoking the audience into a fever of indignation (to keep them watching) and fomenting mistrust of all other information sources (so that they never change the channel).” TwoAudienceMediaInformationSourceElementsModelsBuiltStrategyConservativeProvokingNever ChangeFeverMistrustIndignationBusiness Models Author:David Frum

“The question of whether a device will come into being depends upon three things: first, whether there is a practical use for it that warrants its development and manufacturing costs; second, whether the laws of physics applying to the elements available for its design allow the attainment of the needed ranges, sensitivities, or the like; and third, whether the pertinent art of manufacture has advanced sufficiently to allow a useful embodiment to be built successfully.” FirstsArtUseLawThreeDesignDependsDevelopmentNeededCostElementsBuiltThirdsAvailablePhysicsPracticalsRangeDevicesSensitivityThree ThingsAttainmentManufacturingEmbodimentWarrantsLaws Of PhysicsPertinent Book:MODERN ARMS AND FREE MEN: A DISCUSSION OF THE ROLE OF SCIENCE IN PRESERVING DEMOCRACY Source: MODERN ARMS AND FREE MEN: A DISCUSSION OF THE ROLE OF SCIENCE IN PRESERVING DEMOCRACY
