More quotes by Tom Robbins
It's good to bear in mind that like it or not, enlightenment has always been, even in a golden age, pretty much limited to an elite.
Tom Robbins
Most Americans pay lip service to the idea of freedom, but can't handle real freedom.
Tom Robbins
My comic sense, although deliberately Americanized, is, in its intent, much closer related to the crazy wisdom of Zen monks and the goofy genius of Taoist masters than it is to, say, the satirical gibes on Saturday Night Live. It has both a literary and a metaphysical function.
Tom Robbins
I journey to the east, where I have been told, there are men who have taught death some manners.
Tom Robbins

Tom Robbins
Hold on to your divine blush, your innate rosy magic, or end up brown. Once you're brown, you'll find out you're blue. As blue as indigo. And you know what that means. Indigo. Indigoing. Indigone.
Tom Robbins
Much scientific truth proved to be as hypothetical as poetic allegory. The relationshiip of those rod-connected blue and red balls to an actual atomic structure was about the same as the relationship of Christianity to the fish or the Lamb.
Tom Robbins
And it rained a fever. And it rained a silence. And it rained a sacrifice. And it rained a miracle. And it rained sorceries and saturnine eyes of the totem.
Tom Robbins
All dreams continue in the beyond.
Tom Robbins
You've heard of people calling in sick. You may have called in sick a few times yourself. But have you ever thought about calling in well
Tom Robbins
Just because you're naked doesn't mean you're sexy. Just because you're cynical doesn't mean you're cool.
Tom Robbins
Meditation... dissolves the mind. It erases itself. Throws the ego out on its big brittle ass.
Tom Robbins
A child's mind is its living room it's is going to be residing there for the rest of its earthly existence.
Tom Robbins
When we accept bad art because it's good politics, we're killing the swan to feed the chickens.
