More quotes by Tom Robbins
Some praise me, some blame me. I go the other way. Sometimes those things that attract the most attention to us are the things which afford us the greatest privacy
Tom Robbins
The only question is how to make love stay.
Tom Robbins
I cannot believe that the most delicious things were placed here merely to test us, to temp us, to make it the more difficult for us to capture the grand prize: the safety of the void. To fashion of life such a petty game is unworthy of both men and gods.
Tom Robbins
Logic only gives man what he needs... Magic gives him what he wants.
Tom Robbins
A person's looking for a simple truth to live by, there it is. CHOICE. To refuse to passively accept what we've been handed by nature or society, but to choose for ourselves. CHOICE. That's the difference between emptiness and substance, between a life actually lived and a wimpy shadow cast on an office wall.
Tom Robbins
If you take any activity, any art, any discipline, any skill-take it and push it as far as it will go, push it beyond where it has ever been before, push it to the wildest edges of edges, then you force it into the realm of magic.
Tom Robbins
Should you fail to pilot your own ship, don't be surprised at what inappropriate port you find yourself docked.
Tom Robbins
Anyone who maintains absolute standards of good and evil is dangerous. As dangerous as a maniac with a loaded revolver.
Tom Robbins
Genius may stand on the shoulders of giants, but it stands alone.
Tom Robbins
On their sofas of spice and feathers, the concubines also slept fretfully. In those days the Earth was still flat, and people dreamed often of falling over edges.
Tom Robbins
Never be afraid to make a fool of yourself. The furthest out you can go is the best place to be.
Tom Robbins
You are an ignorant schoolgirl. You think civilization is a good thing.
Tom Robbins
Often, moreover, it is...that aspect of our being that society finds eccentric, ridiculous, or disagreeable, that holds our sweet waters, our secret well of happiness, the key to our equanimity in malevolent climes.
Tom Robbins
When we accept small wonders, we qualify ourselves to imagine great wonders.
Tom Robbins
Birth and death were easy. It was life that was hard.
Tom Robbins
As a child, I was an imaginary playmate.
Tom Robbins
Of the seven deadly sins, lust is definitely the pick of the litter.
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
As expected, you get his machine. Someday, even the call of nature will be answered by a machine.
Tom Robbins
Always compare yourself to the best. Even if you never measure up, it can't help but make you better.
