More quotes by Robert Anton Wilson

Robert Anton Wilson
It's not true unless it makes you laugh, but you don't understand it until it makes you weep.
Robert Anton Wilson

Robert Anton Wilson
Humans live through their myths and only endure their realities.
Robert Anton Wilson
There is one universal sex law: Sex shall not be unregulated.

Robert Anton Wilson

Robert Anton Wilson
Hippies generally aren't busy with anything except feeling sorry for themselves.
Robert Anton Wilson
...reality is always plural and mutable.
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
The border between the Real and the Unreal is not fixed, but just marks the last place where rival gangs of shamans fought each other to a standstill.
Robert Anton Wilson
There's a great universe just next door.
Robert Anton Wilson
There are gods, but there is no God and all gods become devils eventually.
