Extraordinary Quotes and Ideas
    #18877269 - 09/22/13 06:28 PM (10 years, 5 months ago)

Post in this thread bassdass quotes or ideas. I love this thread idea and hope it takes off.:nicesmile:

Geoff Lawton

I know people who survive on their permaculture systems with twelve hours work a week.  Twelve hours.  The average industrialized man works a 40 to 60 hour week.  And what do you have to show for it?  Gadgets.  You’ve just got gadgets.  You haven’t got that clean air, clean water, clean food, sensible housing, warmth, friendship, and community.  You haven’t got that wealth.  You’ve got gadget wealth.  And you’re… completely time poor….  Your time density is really weak, and your time density is really low.  When you work in these (permaculture) systems — it’s so meaningful — your time density is extreme, it’s an extreme time density.  And your time quality is really high.  And if you only have to work ten hours a week, look at all that extra time you’ve got for family, for community, for helping other people, for returning your surplus to your local community.  That’s wealth.  That’s real wealth.

“You can solve all the world's problems in a garden.”

Aldoux Huxly

“The more powerful and original a mind, the more it will incline towards the religion of solitude.”
“The real hopeless victims of mental illness are to be found among those who appear to be most normal. "Many of them are normal because they are so well adjusted to our mode of existence, because their human voice has been silenced so early in their lives, that they do not even struggle or suffer or develop symptoms as the neurotic does." They are normal not in what may be called the absolute sense of the word; they are normal only in relation to a profoundly abnormal society. Their perfect adjustment to that abnormal society is a measure of their mental sickness. These millions of abnormally normal people, living without fuss in a society to which, if they were fully human beings, they ought not to be adjusted.”

John Lennon
“Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.”

“When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t
understand life.”

“If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.”

Terence McKenna

“Chaos is what we've lost touch with. This is why it is given a bad name. It is feared by the dominant archetype of our world, which is Ego, which clenches because its existence is defined in terms of control.”

“If the words 'life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness' don't include the right to experiment with your own consciousness, then the Declaration of Independence isn't worth the hemp it was written on.”

“Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering its a feather bed.”

“The cost of sanity in this society, is a certain level of alienation”

“Television is by nature the dominator drug par excellence. Control of content, uniformity of content, repeatability of content make it inevitably a tool of coersion, brainwashing, and manipulation.”


Timothy Leary

“Admit it. You aren’t like them. You’re not even close. You may occasionally dress yourself up as one of them, watch the same mindless television shows as they do, maybe even eat the same fast food sometimes. But it seems that the more you try to fit in, the more you feel like an outsider, watching the “normal people” as they go about their automatic existences. For every time you say club passwords like “Have a nice day” and “Weather’s awful today, eh?”, you yearn inside to say forbidden things like “Tell me something that makes you cry” or “What do you think deja vu is for?”. Face it, you even want to talk to that girl in the elevator. But what if that girl in the elevator (and the balding man who walks past your cubicle at work) are thinking the same thing? Who knows what you might learn from taking a chance on conversation with a stranger? Everyone carries a piece of the puzzle. Nobody comes into your life by mere coincidence. Trust your instincts. Do the unexpected. Find the others…”

“I declare that The Beatles are mutants. Prototypes of evolutionary agents sent by God, endowed with a mysterious power to create a new human species, a young race of laughing freemen.”

“Turn on, Tune in, Drop out

“Think for yourself. Question authority.”

“LSD is a psychedelic drug which occasionally causes psychotic behavior in people who have NOT taken it.”

“The PC is the LSD of the '90s.”

Salvador Dali

“The difference between false memories and true ones is the
same as for jewels: it is always the false ones that look the
most real, the most brilliant.”

“A true artist is not one who is inspired, but one who inspires others.”

“Surrealism is destructive, but it destroys only what it considers to be shackles limiting our vision

“One day it will have to be officially admitted that what we have christened reality is an even greater illusion than the world of dreams.”





Albert Einstein

“I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity.”

“Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.”

“I never made one of my discoveries through the process of rational thinking”

“We all know that light travels faster than sound. That's why certain people appear bright until you hear them speak.”

“Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.”

“Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.”

“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

“I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”


“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

“When you are courting a nice girl an hour seems like a second. When you sit on a red-hot cinder a second seems like an hour. That's relativity.”

“Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.”

“Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.”

“If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.”

“Try not to become a man of success. Rather become a man of value.”

“Never memorize something that you can look up.”

“Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.”

“I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.”

“Creativity is intelligence having fun.”



“The best way to cheer yourself is to cheer somebody else up.”

“The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before.”

Albert Camus

“You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.”

“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.”

“To be happy, we must not be too concerned with others.”

“In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.”

“Man is the only creature who refuses to be what he is.”

“Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal.”

“There are causes worth dying for, but none worth killing for.”

“It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity.”

“In order to understand the world, one has to turn away from it on occasion."

“I have no idea what's awaiting me, or what will happen when this all ends. For the moment I know this: there are sick people and they need curing.”

"To hell with reality!"

“I have never voted in my life... I have always known and understood that the idiots are in a majority so it's certain they will win.”

"The worst part is wondering how you’ll find the strength tomorrow to go on doing what you did today and have been doing for much too long, where you’ll find the strength for all that stupid running around."

Opium teaches only one thing, which is that aside from physical suffering, there is nothing real.
--Andre Malraux

A man who has once experienced the drug-life finds it difficult to put up with the inanity of normal existence.  He has become wise with the wisdom of despair.
--Aleister Crowley

Who lives longer? the man who takes heroin for two years and dies, or a man who lives on roast beef, water and potatoes 'till 95? One passes his 24 months in eternity. All the years of the beefeater are lived only in time.
--Aldous Huxley

" In Buddhist psychology, ego is seen as a kind of filter, a network through which energy is constantly being channeled and manipulated rather than being able to flow freely in unrestricted space. It is not a solid entity but a moment-to-moment process of birth, evolution, and death." ~ Chögyam Trungpa

"less is more", very often, more appreciation
just something I realized over some time

"giving is better than receiving" (helping others is the best way to be happy)

"A human being is a part of a whole, called by us _universe_, a part limited in time and space.
He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness.
This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us.
Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."
-Einstein

"The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when
you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work...
when you go to church... when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over
your eyes to blind you from the truth."
-The Matrix (thoughts) :-)

"Have you ever had a dream, that you were so sure was real?
What if you were unable to wake from that dream?
How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world?"

"You've got to let it all go, fear, doubt and disbelief. Free Your Mind."

live in the moment without worries, only think when needed
appreciate what you have

peace

"everyone has soul loss to some degree"

soul loss = living as something not yourself, due to stress/pills/thoughts(worrying) i.e.

"it's natural to be happy, look back and remember the last time you were and why"

most people live against themselves(following the crowd), instead of doing what they love


get an education, get a degree, get a car/house/children, earn lots of money, so you can be happy when you're old
instead of being happy now, without needing anything, you got everything to be happy(nature/pets/family/friends/hobbies etc)
you just need a little bit of bread to live...  happiness is within, don't seek it without

Houseplants, pets being happy, guitar, nature  everyday , there are no bad days
can't remember the last time I've had one...  and seeing people you know being happy/making them happy will make you even happier (strangers too)
