When he turned on the tape-transport once more, Arctor was saying, -- as near as I can figure out, God is dead. Luckman answered, I didn't know He was sick.
Philip K. Dick
On some other world, possibly it is different. Better. There are clear good and evil alternatives. Not these obscure admixtures, these blends, with no proper tool by which to untangle the components.
Philip K. Dick
Everything in life is just for a while.
Philip K. Dick
It's not what happened but how it is told.
Philip K. Dick
In a civil war… every side is wrong. It’s hopeless to try to untangle it. Everyone is a victim.

Philip K. Dick
If you think this Universe is bad, you should see some of the others.
Philip K. Dick
The Empire is the institution, the codification, of derangement it is insane and imposes its insanity on us by violence, since its nature is a violent one.
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.
Philip K. Dick
In my writing I even question the universe I wonder out loud if it is real, and I wonder out loud if all of us are real.
Philip K. Dick
My life and creative work are justified and completed by Blade Runner.
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
Human has always striven to retain the past, to keep it convincing there's nothing wicked in that. Without it we have no continuity we have only the moment. And, deprived of the past, the moment - the present - has little meaning, if any.
Philip K. Dick
Little kids are that way they feel if their parents aren't watching what they do then what they do isn't real.
Philip K. Dick
Upon him the contempt of three planets descended.
