the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace things, but burn like fabulous roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue center light pop and everybody goes "AWWW!"---Jack
Because revolution in our culture has always represented an attack on hierarchy, it has always meant upheaval--literally a heaving up from below. But upheaval has no role to play in moving beyond civilization. If the plane is in trouble, you don't shoot the pilot, you grab a parachute and jump. To overthrow the hierarchy is pointless; we just want to leave it behind.---Quinn
"I did not know I loved you until I heard myself telling so, for one instance I thought, "Good God, what have I said?" and then I knew it was true." Bertrand Russell
But now I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth. Umberto Eco
"He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from opposition; for if he violates this duty he establishes a precedent that will reach himself." Thomas Paine
"Nothing exists until or unless it is observed. An artist is making something exist by observing it. And his hope for other people is that they will also make it exist by observing it. I call it "creative observation." Creative viewing." W.S.Burroughs
"Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something." Henry David Thoreau
"You are captives of a civilization that more or less compels you to go on destroying the world in order to live. You are captives and you have made a captive of the world itself. If you don't discover what's keeping you in, the will to get out soon becomes confused and ineffectual.
Ishmael in Ishmael by Daniel Quinn
"Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away." Philip K. Dick
"The World is my country, all mankind are my brethren, and to do good is my religion." Thomas Paine
"Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward." Kurt Vonnegut
"I have often thought that if a rational Fascist dictatorship were to exist, then it would choose the American system." Noam Chomsky
A free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad. Albert Camus
"There lies before us, if we choose, continued progress in happiness, knowledge and wisdom. Shall we instead choose death because we can not forget our quarrels? I appeal as a human being to human beings. Remember your humanity and forget the rest. If you can do so the way lies open to a new Paradise; if you cannot, nothing lies before you but universal death."---Bertrand Russell
"You don't have to "go somewhere" to get beyond civilization. You have to make your living a different way." Daniel Quinn
"The unreal is more powerful than the real, because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. stone crumbles. wood rots. people, well, they die. but things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on.-Chuck Palahniuk
