I look forward without dogmatic optimism but without dread.
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
Image
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 Western World has been brainwashed by Aristotle for the last 2,500 years.

The abandoned infant's cry is rage, not fear.

Image
...when dogma enters the brain, all intellectual activity ceases.
Robert Anton Wilson
Image
Belief is the death of intelligence.
Robert Anton Wilson
Image
Nobody sees the obvious, nobody observes the ordinary. There are more miracles in a square yard of earth than in all the fables of the Church.
Robert Anton Wilson
Image
Certitude belongs exclusively to those who only look in one encyclopedia.
Robert Anton Wilson
Image
part of the humor of living on this backward planet is listening to the hominids rationalize their predations.

There's a great universe just next door.

Image
Hippies generally aren't busy with anything except feeling sorry for themselves.
Robert Anton Wilson
Image
You are precisely as big as what you love and precisely as small as what you allow to annoy you.
Robert Anton Wilson
Image
Anyone in the United States today who isn't paranoid must be crazy.
Robert Anton Wilson
Image
You should view the world as a conspiracy run by a very closely-knit group of nearly omnipotent people, and you should think of those people as yourself and your friends.
