More quotes by Alan Watts
Society is our extended mind and body.
Alan Watts
If we are not totally blind, what we are seeking is already here. This is it.
Alan Watts
The more a thing tends to be permanent, the more it tends to be lifeless.
Alan Watts
Many people think that the Bible is the authentic word of God and they worship the Bible, making it an idol.
Alan Watts
The sound of the rain needs no translation. In music one doesn't make the end of the composition the point of the composition... Same way in dancing, you don't aim at one particular spot in the room... The whole point of dancing is the dance.
Alan Watts
... preliminary accounting, banking and surveying (known as arithmetic, algebra and geometry).
Alan Watts
A less 'brainy-culture' would learn to synchronise its body rhythms rather than its clocks.
Alan Watts
And the more you become aware of the unknown self - if you become aware of it - the more you realize that it is inseparably connected with everything else that is.
Alan Watts
If you are afraid of death, be afraid. The point is to get with it, to let it take over - fear, ghosts, pains, transience, dissolution, and all. And then comes the hitherto unbelievable surprise you don't die because you were never born. You had just forgotten who you are.
Alan Watts
Some believe all that parents, tutors, and kindred believe. They take their principles by inheritance, and defend them as they would their estates, because they are born heirs to them.
Alan Watts
You can't make love without art.
Alan Watts
You are the universe experiencing itself.
Alan Watts
How did you know you're alive, unless you'd once been dead?
Alan Watts
You can't get wet from the word 'water.'
Alan Watts
Black implies white self implies other
Alan Watts
How is it possible that a being with such sensitive jewels as the eyes, such enchanted musical instruments as the ears, and such fabulous arabesque of nerves as the brain can experience itself anything less than a god.
Alan Watts
Problems that remain persistently insoluble should always be suspected as questions asked in the wrong way.
Alan Watts
Just as the highest and the lowest notes are equally inaudible, so perhaps, is the greatest sense and the greatest nonsense equally unintelligible.
Alan Watts
There is nothing at all that can be talked about adequately, and the whole art of poetry is to say what can't be said.
Alan Watts
The soul is something which contains the body. The body doesn't contain the soul. The soul, if we put it into modern language, is the entire complex of relationships in whose context this organism exists.
Alan Watts
