More quotes by Sun Ra
A world is in danger, this planet is in great danger!
Sun Ra
Music is a plane of wisdom, because music is a universal language, it is a language of honor, it is a noble precept, a gift of the Airy Kingdom, music is air, a universal existence common to all the living.
Sun Ra
I never wanted to be a part of planet Earth, but I am compelled to be here, so anything I do for this planet is because the Master-Creator of the Universe is making me do it. I am of another dimension. I am on this planet because people need me.
Sun Ra
At first there was nothingthen nothing turned itself inside-out and became something
Sun Ra
I think of myself as a complete mystery. To myself.
Sun Ra
Freedom of Speech is Freedom of Music.
Sun Ra
Space is not only high, it's low. It's a bottomless pit.
Sun Ra
The music is not part of this planet in a sense that the spirit of it is about happiness. Most musicians play earth things about what they know, but I found out that they are mostly unhappy and frustrated, and that creeps over into their music.
Sun Ra
I'm not into division. I'm into coordination, discipline and tradition.
Sun Ra
Music can be the bridge to understanding, but people have to get some knowledge.
Sun Ra
Behold the pre-prophetic symbols of the planes of Never. Behold, behold this thisness! This isness.
Sun Ra
It takes a motion to notion and it takes a notion to motion.
Sun Ra
The real aim of music is to co-ordinate the minds of the people into an intelligent reach for a better world and an intelligent approach to the living future.
Sun Ra
In the world of tomorrow, the new man will 'think' the place he wants to go, then his mind will take him there.
Sun Ra
The possible has been tried and failed. Now it's time to try the impossible.
Sun Ra
If you’re not mad at the world, you don’t have what it takes
Sun Ra
Proper evaluations of words and letters in their phonetic and associated sense can bring the people of earth to the clear light of pure cosmic wisdom.
Sun Ra
What I'm dealing with is so vast and great that it can't be called the truth. It's above the truth.
Sun Ra
Sometimes in the ignorance I feel the meaning Invincible invisible wisdom, And I commune with intuitive instinct With the force that made life be And since it made life be It is greater than life And since it let extinction be It is greater than extinction. I commune with feelings more than prayer
Sun Ra
Art does not begin with imitation, but with discipline.
Sun Ra
