More quotes by Alan Watts
The difficulty for most of us in the modern world is that the old-fashioned idea of God has become incredible or implausible.
Alan Watts
No one is more dangerously insane than one who is sane all the time: he is like a steel bridge without flexibility, and the order of his life is rigid and brittle.
Alan Watts
Truly great companies are built on ideals, not just deals.
Alan Watts
A scholar tries to learn something everyday a student of Buddhism tries to unlearn something daily.
Alan Watts
The menu is not the meal.
Alan Watts
The life of Zen begins, therefore, in a disillusion with the pursuit of goals which do not really exist the good without the bad, the gratification of a self which is no more than an idea, and the morrow which never comes.
Alan Watts
The reason we want to go on and on is because we live in an impoverished present.
Alan Watts
The mundane and the sacred are one and the same.
Alan Watts
Think about a piece of music - some great symphony - we don't expect it to get better as it develops, or that its whole purpose is to reach the final crescendo. The joy is found in listening to the music in each moment.
Alan Watts
You must not be afraid of playing wrong notes. Just forget it, play it wrong! But play!
Alan Watts
We usually don't look. We overlook.
Alan Watts
Faith is, above all, openness an act of trust in the unknown.
Alan Watts
No amount of anxiety makes any difference to anything that is going to happen.
Alan Watts
Technology is destructive only in the hands of people who do not realize that they are one and the same process as the universe.
Alan Watts
If we live, we live if we die, we die if we suffer, we suffer if we are terrified, we are terrified. There is no problem about it.
Alan Watts
Zen is a liberation from time. For if we open our eyes and see clearly, it becomes obvious that there is no other time than this instant, and that the past and the future are abstractions without any concrete reality.
Alan Watts
Buddhism ... is not a culture but a critique of culture, an enduring nonviolent revolution or loyal opposition to the culture in which it is involved.
Alan Watts
Paradoxical as it may seem, the purposeful life has no content, no point. It hurries on and on, and misses everything. Not hurrying, the purposeless life misses nothing, for it is only when there is no goal and no rush that the human senses are fully open to receive the world.
Alan Watts
It is hard indeed to notice anything for which the languages available to us have no description.
Alan Watts
The morning glory which blooms for an hour differs not at heart from a giant pine that lives for a thousand years.
Alan Watts
