You mean old books? Stories written before space travel but about space travel. How could there have been stories about space travel before -- The writers, Pris said, made it up.
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. Even though I can't prove that, even though it isn't logical - I believe it.
Philip K. Dick
Drug misuse is not a disease, it is a decision, like the decision to step out in front of a moving car. You would call that not a disease but an error of judgment.
Philip K. Dick
No man is infinitely strong for every creature that runs, flies, hops or crawls there is a terminal nemesis which he will not circumvent, which will finally do him in.

Little kids are that way they feel if their parents aren't watching what they do then what they do isn't real.

I must admit that the existence of Disneyland (which I know is real) proves that we are not living in Judaea in 50 AD. . . . Saint Paul would never go near Disneyland. Only children, tourists, and visiting Soviet high officials ever go to Disneyland. Saints do not.
Philip K. Dick
You're killing yourself with cynicism. Your idols got taken away from you one by one and now you have nothing to give your love to.
Philip K. Dick
Maybe each human being lives in a unique world, a private world, a world different from those inhabited and experienced by all other humans.
Philip K. Dick
The distinction between sanity and insanity is narrower than a razor’s edge, sharper than a hound’s tooth, more agile than a mule deer. It is more elusive than the merest phantom. Perhaps it does not even exist perhaps it is a phantom.
Philip K. Dick
A lot can be said for the infinite mercies of God, but the smarts of a good pharmacist, when you get down to it, is worth more.
Philip K. Dick
People have told me that everything about me, every facet of my life, psyche, experiences, dreams, and fears, are laid out explicitly in my writing, that from the corpus of my work I can be absolutely and precisely inferred. This is true.
Philip K. Dick
When I was a child, I thought as a child. But now I have put away childish things. ... I must be scientific.
Philip K. Dick
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
Everything in life is just for a while.
Philip K. Dick
To fight the Empire is to be infected by its derangement.... Whoever defeats the Empire becomes the Empire it proliferates like a virus.
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.
Philip K. Dick
Every time I see a picture of Stalin I look him square in the eye and I say: You're a meat eater, Joseph.
Philip K. Dick
The odd thing in this world is that an eager-beaver type, with no original ideas, who mimes those in authority above him right to the last twist of necktie and scrape of chin, always gets noticed. Gets selected. Rises.
