 Truth is used to vitalize a statement rather than devitalize it. Truth implies more than a simple statement of fact. "I don't have any whiskey," may be a fact but it is not a truth. |
| Virtue is simply happiness, and happiness is a by-product of function. You are happy when you are functioning. |
| We are like water creatures looking up at the land and air and wondering how we can survive in that alien medium. The water we live in is Time. That alien medium we glimpse beyond time is Space. And that is where we are going. |
| We are setting out to create new worlds, new beings, new modes of consciousness. |
| We must find out what words are and how they function. They become images when written down, but images of words repeated in the mind and not of the image of the thing itself. |
| When I become death, death is the seed from which I grow. |
| When I say madness I mean what I see in a nut house: beat, resigned, dim, diffuse, nowhere people. No fire no intensity no life. There is madness & madness if you want to stretch the word. |
| Whenever anyone reads his words the writer is there. He lives in his readers. |
| Which came first the intestine or the tapeworm? |
| Writers don't write, they read and transcribe. |
| Writing prejudicial, off-putting reviews is a precise exercise in applied black magic. The reviewer can draw free-floating disagreeable associations to a book by implying that the book is completely unimportant without saying exactly why, and carefully avoiding any clear images that could capture the reader's full attention. |
| You can't fake quality any more than you can fake a good meal. |
| Your knowledge of what is going on can only be superficial and relative. |
| Your mind will answer most questions if you learn to relax and wait for the answer. |
