Of course you don't die. Nobody dies. Death doesn't exist. You only reach a new level of vision, a new realm of consciousness, a new unknown world.

More quotes by Henry Miller
People used to envy me my inspiration. I hate inspiration. It takes you over completely. I could never wait until it passed and I got rid of it.
Henry Miller
Keep your libraries, your penal institutions, your insaneasylums... give me beer.You think man needs rule, he needs beer. The world does not need morals, it needs beer... The souls of men have been fed with indigestibles, but the soul could make use of beer.
Henry Miller
Until we accept the fact that life itself is founded in mystery, we shall learn nothing.
Henry Miller
I believe that today more than ever a book should be sought after even if it has only one great page in it. We must search for fragments, splinters, toenails, anything that has ore in it, anything that is capable of resuscitating the body and the soul.
Henry Miller
The most wonderful opportunity which life offers is to be human.
Henry Miller
Men are not suffering from the lack of good literature, good art, good theatre, good music, but from that which has made it impossible for these to become manifest. In short, they are suffering from the silent shameful conspiracy (the more shameful since it is unacknowledged) which has bound them together as enemies of art and artists.
Henry Miller
The only difference between the Adamic man and the man of today is that the one was born to Paradise and the other has to create it.
Henry Miller
Keep your exclamation points under control!
Henry Miller
In expanding the field of knowledge we but increase the horizon of ignorance.
Henry Miller
Those interested in celestial navigation are advised to first obtain a rudimentary knowledge of integral calculus, phlebotomy, astral physics and related subjects. The use of liquor is strictly forbidden on interplanetary flights.
Henry Miller
Don't look for miracles. You yourself are the miracle.
Henry Miller
Out yonder they may curse, revile, and torture one another, defile all the human instincts, make a shambles of creation (if it were in their power), but here, no, here, it is unthinkable, here there is abiding peace, the peace of God, and the serene security created by a handful of good neighbors living at one with the creature world.
Henry Miller
Moralities, ethics, laws, customs, beliefs, doctrines - these are of trifling import. All that matters is that the miraculous become the norm.
Henry Miller
Leave out the parts that readers tend to skip.
Henry Miller
The purpose of life is to remember.
Henry Miller
They were painfully clean. But inwardly they stank. Never once had they opened the door which leads to the soul never once did they dream of taking a blind leap into the dark.
Henry Miller
The man who is forever disturbed about the condition of humanity either has no problems of his own or has refused to face them.
Henry Miller
Words are loneliness.
Henry Miller
Once you have given up the ghost, everything follows with dead certainty, even in the midst of chaos.
Henry Miller
Certainly paradise, whatever, wherever it be, contains flaws. (Paradisical flaws, if you like.) If it did not, it would be incapable of drawing the hearts of men or angels.
