More quotes by Robert Anton Wilson
The totally convinced and the totally stupid have too much in common for the resemblance to be accidental.
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
There is absolutely nothing that can be taken for granted in this world.
Robert Anton Wilson
Is, is, is — the idiocy of the word haunts me. If it were abolished, human thought might begin to make sense. I don't know what anything is I only know how it seems to me at this moment.
Robert Anton Wilson
Most of our ancestors were not perfect ladies and gentlemen. The majority of them weren't even mammals.
Robert Anton Wilson
I regard belief as a form of brain damage.
Robert Anton Wilson
Most of the characteristics which make for success in writing are precisely those which we are all taught to repress ... the firm belief that you are an important person, that you are a lot smarter than most people, and that your ideas are so damned important that everybody should listen to you.
Robert Anton Wilson
Reality is what you can get away with.
Robert Anton Wilson
The ultimate weapon isn't this plague out in Vegas, or any new super H-bomb. The ultimate weapon has always existed. Every man, every woman, and every child owns it. It's the ability to say No and take the consequences.
Robert Anton Wilson
If you want to be happy, practise it every day
Robert Anton Wilson

Robert Anton Wilson
The individual act of obedience is the cornerstone not only of the strength of authoritarian society but also of its weakness.
Robert Anton Wilson
Existence is larger than any model that is not itself the exact size of existence (which has no size).
Robert Anton Wilson
It is a great privilege to be conscious in this universe. Those who understand, shine like stars.
Robert Anton Wilson
It only takes 20 years for a liberal to become a conservative without changing a single idea.
Robert Anton Wilson
Taxation is robbery based on monopoly of weapons
Robert Anton Wilson
A disciple is an asshole looking for a human being to attach itself to.
Robert Anton Wilson
Nothing of any importance can be taught. It can only be learned, and with blood and sweat.
Robert Anton Wilson
Science, incidentally, not only ignores the question of indwelling 'essences' by looking instead at measurable relationships, but science also does not agree that knowledge is obtained through Rothbard's Medieval 'investigation by a reason,' i.e., by inventing definitions and then deducing what your definitions implicitly assumed.
Robert Anton Wilson
Anyone in the United States today who isn't paranoid must be crazy.
