Quotes About Signals

The point is that no matter what you do or don't do, you are sending signals; you are intervening in the situation and therefore need to be mindful of that reality. Unless you are invisible you cannot help but communicate, so your choice of communication should be based on what kind of intervention you intend.
~ Edgar H. Schein
It has long been known that interoceptive signals are largely conveyed to the central nervous system either by neurons whose axons are devoid of myelin, the C fibers, or by neurons whose axons are very lightly myelinated, the A delta fibers.
~ António R. Damásio
For one thing, part of the process is not even neural; that is, it does not involve regular nervous firing along chains of neurons. The process is humoral: chemical signals traveling in the blood capillaries bathe certain regions of the nervous system that are devoid of blood-brain barrier and can thus inform those brain regions directly about aspects of the ongoing homeostatic state.17
~ António R. Damásio
You can tell when someone's starting to get a little frustrated.
~ Joe Ingles
patterns not present on any key levels are often false signals which may cause disasters.
~ Frank Miller
Birds are indicators of the environment. If they are in trouble, we know we'll soon be in trouble.
~ Roger Tory Peterson
Astronomers who were recently sifting through thousands of signals from Sagittarius B2, a big dust cloud at the center of our galaxy, found a substance there called ethyl formate, which is the chemical responsible for the flavor of raspberries, and the smell of rum, the drink popular with pirates. Therefore, our galaxy tastes a bit of raspberries and smells of rum, which is nice.
~ John Connolly
Every journey follows the traffic rules like red, yellow, and green signals and various signs; similarly, the life journey adopts discipline, honesty, neutrality, and moral values; otherwise, against that appears a violation and risks consequences.
~ Ehsan Sehgal
Has my heart gone to sleep? Have the beehives of my dreams stopped working, the waterwheel of the mind run dry, scoops turning empty, only shadow inside? No, my heart is not asleep. It is awake, wide awake. Not asleep, not dreaming— its eyes are opened wide watching distant signals, listening on the rim of vast silence
~ Antonio Machado
The next innovation, Sensavision, will be like a Walkman attached to your forehead. You won't actually have your head wired because infrared wires will send signals to you. In 2007 Mick Jagger will be on stage, and when Mick feels heat, you'll feel heat.
~ Tony Verna
My central thesis is that combining increased temporal and spatial resolution in MRI techniques with increasingly powerful data correlation techniques will allow the derivation of interpreted meanings from neural signals. I observed, further, that the techniques that exist already allow some correlations.
~ Mary Lou Jepsen
In the short term if I feel loneliness, it's like any other biological signals. It's like hunger or thirst. It's alerting me that something that's critical for my survival is missing.
~ Vivek Murthy
The neural code usually refers to how your current thoughts and feelings and perceptions are encoded in the signals that neurons are passing around - and it's not the same. The code is not the same for every person.
~ Sebastian Seung
We don't know how to identify intelligence over interstellar distances, so what we do instead is use technology for a proxy.
~ Jill Tarter
As with all technical indicators, signals on weekly charts are always more important than those on daily charts. The best way to combine them is to use weekly signals to determine market direction and the daily signals to fine-tune entry and exit points.
~ John J. Murphy
We're all so curiously alone, but it's important to keep making signals through the glass
~ John Marsden
The chairs and tables around us which broadcast to us incessantly those signals which affect our sight and touch cannot in their nature be like unto the signals or to the sensations which the signals awake at the end of their journey.
~ Arthur Stanley Eddington
And I know you hear their voices Calling from above And I know they may seem real These signals of love But our life's made up of choices Some without appeal They took for granted your soul And it's ours now to steal
~ Avenged Sevenfold
The fleet being thus more inclosed will more readily observe the signals, and with greater facility form itself into the line of battle a circumstance which should be kept in view in every order of sailing.
~ William Falconer
In India, horns function as turn signals, brake lights, hand gestures, prayers.
~ Sallie Tisdale
The way that organizations and organisms anticipate the future is by taking signals from the past, most the time.
~ Kevin Kelly
feel an emotion it is necessary but not sufficient that neural signals from viscera, from muscles and joints, and from neurotransmitter nuclei—all of which are activated during the process of emotion—reach certain subcortical nuclei and the cerebral cortex. Endocrine and other chemical signals also reach the central nervous system via the bloodstream among other routes.
~ António R. Damásio
No matter how confusing your body's signals may appear, they always make sense if you just listen and learn the language. Listening to your body's vibes for guidance and feedback may seem odd at first, but keep in mind that your body is a direct conduit to your Higher Self, and it won't mislead you. Every signal it sends has direct meaning and essential information for your physical well-being, spiritual balance, and safety.
~ Sonia Choquette
Life proceeds amid an incessant network of signals.
~ George Steiner
