Laughed at by time, Tricked by circumstances
Plus ça change, plus c’est la meme chose,
The more that things change, the more they stay the same

-Rush “Circumstances” 1979 Album: Hemispheres

It was from Circumstances, I think.

Does nobody listen to Rush? This is part of the song Circumstances! “Plus a change, plus c’est la meme chose, the more that things change, the more they stay the same”

So I thought, on a scale from “less” to “more”, what’s inbetween? I would say “the same”. So if the amount of things staying the same is the same, it could stay the same more.

So the more things stay the same, the more the sameness changes.

arent you supposed to read independent then dependent axis? …..so “the more things stay the same, the more they change”. proverb X axis inversion = fail.

hmmm… your comment makes sense, but does that also work for bar graphs that are turned on their side?

People who don’t know how to read graphs should be executed.

I prefer Spinal Tap’s version:

“THe more it stays the same, the less it changes!”

Problem is, the graph says “the more things change, the more things change”.

Good idea, not so much on the execution…

it’s a Tower of Power line from the song Diggin’ On James Brown.

The full verse is as follows:

You know the more things change
The more they stay the same
It may be a different age
But I’m on the same page
And one thing that I’ve found
I’ll still be diggin’ on James Brown

You need to switch your dependent and independent variables because as is, it doesn’t make any sense.

Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!

There’s nothing better than taking a 17th century French proverb and visualizing its metrics. Very well done!

I agree, It would look better as an x-y scatter plot going through zero and without unnecessary labelling.

man at first I thought this was a self-explanitory graph- the more things change, showing that, well… they change more… I was laughing…

But the ’stay the same’ caught my eye at the last minute, and I was sad.

Plus what’s with the less and more labels? Everyone knows how a graph works like that.
