More quotes by Robert Anton Wilson
Accuracy of signal and free flow of information define sanity in my epistemology.
Robert Anton Wilson
I look forward without dogmatic optimism but without dread.
Robert Anton Wilson
The path up is the path down. The way forward is the way back. The universe inside is outside but the universe outside is inside.
Robert Anton Wilson
Here's to the good Nuns for telling me what books NOT to read!
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
Death makes me realize how deeply I have internalized the agnosticism I preach in all my books. I consider dogmatic belief and dogmatic denial very childish forms of conceit in a world of infinitely whirling complexity. None of us can see enough from one corner of space-time to know all about the rest of space-time.
Robert Anton Wilson
Certitude is seized by some minds, not because there is any philosophical justification for it, but because such minds have an emotional need for certitude.
Robert Anton Wilson
The things that hinder me are opportunities to learn more and develop further.
Robert Anton Wilson
I used to be an atheist, until I realized I had nothing to shout during blowjobs. Oh Random Chance! Oh Random Chance! just doesn't cut it….
Robert Anton Wilson
Consciousness itself is an infinite regress. This explains coincidences.
Robert Anton Wilson
Show me a movement that doesn't hate somebody and I will join it at once.
Robert Anton Wilson
Each mans spills the drink he loves.
Robert Anton Wilson
I am filled with fear and tormented with terrible visions of pain. Everywhere people are hurting one another, the planet is rampant with injustices, whole societies plunder groups of their own people, mothers imprison sons, children perish while brothers war. O, woe.
Robert Anton Wilson
Of course I'm crazy, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong.
Robert Anton Wilson
It is a great privilege to be conscious in this universe. Those who understand, shine like stars.
Robert Anton Wilson
The only intelligent way to discuss politics is on all fours.
Robert Anton Wilson
The only way to stave off boredom, in a complex domesticated primate like humankind, is to increase one's intelligence. This is not appealing to the average primate, who instead invents emotional games (soap opera and grand opera dramatics).
Robert Anton Wilson
Are traditional schools very much like mini-prisons? Do they stifle imagination, cramp the child physically and mentally, and run on various forms of overt or covert terrorism? Of course, the answer is an unambiguous YES.
Robert Anton Wilson
I think I got off on the wrong planet. Beam me up Scotty, there's no rational life here.
Robert Anton Wilson
He who lives happiest has forgotten most
