“But it's not going to stop.
It's not going to stop.
It's not going to stop
'Til you wise up.”

—  Aimee Mann

"Wise Up" Clip from Magnolia of performances by Mann and cast members https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNmKghTvj0E ·  Live at St. Ann's Warehouse https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3D7xplBYNY
Song lyrics, Magnolia: Music from the Motion Picture (1999)
Context: You're sure
There's a cure.
And you have finally found it.
You think
One drink
Will shrink you 'til you're underground
And living down.
But it's not going to stop.
It's not going to stop.
It's not going to stop
'Til you wise up.

“The changes are not going to stop. They are going to continue and accelerate. Like it or not.”

Madeleine L'Engle (1918–2007) American writer

Acceptance Speech for the Margaret Edwards Award (1998)
Context: I don't want to dump on TV, but there's no doubt that our language has been changed by television, especially by the media, which tries to manipulate us into being consumers. Most of the time nowadays we human beings are referred to as consumers. What does the consumer think? What does the consumer want? How ugly. Forest fires consume. Cancer consumes. I want us to be nourishers. To be a librarian, particularly a librarian for young adults, is to be a nourisher, to share stories, offer books full of new ideas. We live in a world which has changed radically in the last half century, and story helps us to understand and live creatively with change.
The changes are not going to stop. They are going to continue and accelerate. Like it or not.

“If something cannot go on forever, it will stop.”

Herbert Stein (1916–1999) American economist

Congressional testimony in 1976, in reference to a then-current economic trend of rising international trade deficits.

So, what we have learned about all these things is that the Federal debt cannot rise forever relative to the GNP. Our foreign debt cannot rise forever relative to the GNP.
