Inability to accept the mystic experience is more than an intellectual handicap, lack of awareness of the basic unity of organism and environment is a serious and dangerous hallucination - Alan Watts

Humble yourself or the world will do it for you.
-it was either Russel or Whitehead, I'm not sure which.
When I was young, I use to think the world was a pretty messed up place so I was pissed off a lot. See what I mean? I was pissed off a lot. But now that I'm older, I know it is... so I just don't worry about it anymore.
-John Lyndon (AKA Johnny Rotten)
Anarchy though Capitalism

"Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of himself without police protection is both. It is as cowardly to betray an offender to justice, even though his offences be against yourself, as it is not to avenge an injury by violence. It is dastardly and contemptible in a wounded man to betray the name of his assailant, because if he recovers, he must naturally expect to take vengeance himself."

hehe, I have pages full of my favorite quotes, but here's a sample 
"I did not inhale." -Bill Clinton
"Got no god
got no girlfriend"
"Dear life, when I said 'can my day get any worse' it was a rhetorical question, not a challenge." -Will Ferrell
"This homeless guy asked me for money and I was about to give it to him and then I thought, "he's just gonna use it on drugs or alcohol." Then I thought, "That's what I'm gonna use it on!"
"Would you rather step in quicksand?
Or spend your entire life
avoiding it"
-Captain Acid Hat's Amazing Acid Adventure (erowid trip report)
"You'll never know what you're seeking
Until you find it" -unknown

We'll think of it some other time
The power you possess
It swallows me complete"

when asked what surprised him most about humanity,
Quote:
Dalai Lama said:
Man.
Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money.
Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health.
And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present;
the result being that he does not live in the present or the future;
he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.

Everything is ME.

i tried treating life as a muse but making things is how i live so it became a statement of existentialism to make anything at all.
don't know if its philosophical, but those words came out of my brain today, big self realization.

Yet another! I find I am enjoying pondering various favorite quotes from times gone...... where?
Anyway...... there follows the present favorite.... for the moment....
Cogito ergo sum,.... (I think therefore I am)... Descartes.
Reformulated by Spinoza:...ego sum cogitans.. "I, in being conscious, am existent."

What is like a smelly fart, that, although invisible, is obvious?
One's own faults, that are precisely as obvious as the effort made to hide them.
