Paranoia is just having the right information.

Paranoia: the gift of the survivor and the burden of the overtired, stressed, and terrified.
Patricia Briggs
Image
Paranoia is just another mask for ignorance. The truth, when you finally chase it down is almost always far worse than your darkest visions and fears
Hunter S. Thompson
Image
Paranoia is a survival trait when you run in my circles. It gives you something to do in your spare time, coming up with solutions to ridiculous problems that aren't ever going to happen. Except when one of them does, at which point you feel way too vindicated. - Harry Dresden, Changes, Jim Butcher
Jim Butcher
Image
Paranoia reduces anxiety and guilt by transferring to the other all the characteristics one does not want to recognize in oneself. It is maintained by selective perception and recall. We only see and acknowledge those negative aspects of the enemy that support the stereotype we have already created.
Sam Keen
Image
paranoia is just a heightened sense of awareness
John Lennon
Image
I've always found paranoia to be a perfectly defensible position.
Pat Conroy

But when I first got cancer, after the initial shock and the fear and paranoia and crying and all that goes with cancer - that word means to most people ultimate death - I decided to see what I could do to take that negative and use it in a positive way.
Herbie Mann

My biggest fear is that I become useless or less useful by not being up to date - be it with technology, changing consumers, changing global situations. You continuously have to have a little level of paranoia that forces you to set the bar higher every day.
Paul Polman

Working under the Soviet system made you very paranoid - people were afraid of everything - and this paranoia is still in people's minds.

Pronoia is the antidote for paranoia. It's the understanding that the universe is fundamentally friendly. It's a mode of training your senses and intellect so you're able to perceive the fact that life always gives you exactly what you need, exactly when you need it.
Rob Brezsny
Image
There is a real comfort with the position of the victim, which can either result in true empathy or deep paranoia.
Jill Soloway
Image
If there is something comforting - religious, if you want - about paranoia, there is still also anti-paranoia, where nothing is connected to anything, a condition not many of us can bear for long.
Thomas Pynchon
Image
Pakistan is alarmed by the rising Indian influence in Afghanistan, and fears that an Afghanistan cleansed of the Taliban would be an Indian client state, thus sandwiching Pakistan between two hostile countries. The paranoia of Pakistan about India's supposed dark machinations should never be underestimated.
Salman Rushdie
Image
I put it down to the paranoia of advancing age. It isn't like I'm all that old or anything, especially for a wizard, but age is always advancing and I'm fairly sure it's up to no good.
Jim Butcher
Image
Psychedelic drugs cause paranoia, confusion, and total loss of reality in politicians that have never taken them.
Timothy Leary
Image
A good leader shares information, even if they don't know the whole story. Without any information, people create their own, which causes fear and paranoia.
Simon Sinek
Image
I don't agonize over decisions as much these days. The criteria of what's important to me is clear. The insecurity that you feel, and the paranoia that you feel, have been around for a long time - you know it's a liar because it's been lying to you all along - every time you start something new.
John Cusack
Image
Now, I love playing moms who can't hide their paranoia.
Wendi McLendon-Covey
Image
Drugs induce paranoia and psychosis in people who have never taken any.
