More quotes by Robert Anton Wilson
If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for?
Robert Anton Wilson
All that we know is what registers on our brains, so what you perceive (your individual reality-tunnel) is made up of nothing but thoughts—as Sir Humphrey Davy noted when self-experimenting with nitrous oxide in 1819, and as Buddha noticed by sitting alone until all his social imprints atrophied and dropped away.
Robert Anton Wilson
You are precisely as big as what you love and precisely as small as what you allow to annoy you.
Robert Anton Wilson
The normal is that which nobody quite is. If you listen to seemingly dull people very closely, you'll see that they're all mad in different and interesting ways, and are merely struggling to hide it.
Robert Anton Wilson
Every war results from the struggle for markets and spheres of influence, and every war is sold to the public by professional liars and totally sincere religious maniacs, as a Holy Crusade to save God and Goodness from Satan and Evil.
Robert Anton Wilson
Taxation is robbery based on monopoly of weapons
Robert Anton Wilson

Robert Anton Wilson

Robert Anton Wilson
Every kind of ignorance in the world all results from not realizing that our perceptions are gambles. We believe what we see and then we believe our interpretation of it, we don’t even know we are making an interpretation most of the time. We think this is reality.
Robert Anton Wilson
The things that hinder me are opportunities to learn more and develop further.
Robert Anton Wilson
Having a spine is overrated. If everybody squealed and ran away, there'd be no more wars.
Robert Anton Wilson
I regard morality and ideology as the chief cause of human misery.
Robert Anton Wilson
There is no complete theory of anything.
Robert Anton Wilson
I really dread serious people. Especially serious, dogmatic people. I regard them as sort of what Reich called the emotional plague. I regard them as very dangerous.
Robert Anton Wilson
I don't believe anything I write or say. I regard belief as a form of brain damage, the death of intelligence, the fracture of creativity, the atrophy of imagination. I have opinions but no Belief System (B.S.)
Robert Anton Wilson
An Enlightened Master is ideal only if your goal is to become a Benighted Slave.
Robert Anton Wilson
Most of our ancestors were not perfect ladies and gentlemen. The majority of them weren't even mammals.
Robert Anton Wilson
Communication is only possible between equals.
