More quotes by Philip K. Dick
Even if all life on our planet is destroyed, there must be other life somewhere which we know nothing of. It is impossible that ours is the only world there must be world after world unseen by us, in some region or dimension that we simply do not perceive.

What they do not comprehend is man's helplessness. I am weak, small, of no consequence to the universe. It does not notice me I live on unseen. But why is that bad? Isn't it that way? Whom the gods notice they destroy. Be small... and you will escape the jealousy of the great.

Philip K. Dick
The true measure of a man is not his intelligence or how high he rises in this freak establishment. No, the true measure of a man is this: how quickly can he respond to the needs of others and how much of himself he can give.
Philip K. Dick
The silence of the world could not rein back it's greed. Not any longer. Not when it had virtually won.
Philip K. Dick
Unless we can psychologically accommodate change, we ourselves begin to die, inwardly. What I am saying is that objects, customs, habits, and ways of life must perish so that the authentic human being can live. And it is the authentic human being who matters most, the viable, elastic organism which can bounce back, absorb, and deal with the new.
Philip K. Dick
I think great art should play a part in the ordinary man's life, don't you? It can make his existence so much richer and more meaningful.
Philip K. Dick
There is no route out of the maze. The maze shifts as you move through it, because it is alive.
Philip K. Dick
I'm a strange person. Sometimes I hardly know what I'm going to do or say next. Sometimes I seem a stranger to myself. Sometimes what I do surprises me and I can't understand why I do it.

This is a mournful discovery. 1)Those who agree with you are insane 2)Those who do not agree with you are in power.
Philip K. Dick
Can we consider the universe real, and if so, in what way?

I'm tired and I want to rest I want to get out of this and go lie down somewhere, off where it's dark and no one speaks. Forever.
