"I think not!" said Descartes, and promptly disappeared.

A little joke for fellow philosophy dorks. :)

"Maybe this world is another planet's hell."
- Aldous Huxley


^ I feel a statement that everything is relative. Just as my life or yours could be another's 'heaven' or 'hell' depending on how they live now and what they want from life :)

I fail to see why this is a quote in the P and S forum.
I've watched the Charles Manson interviews and he's a completely phony and lost person. I would pity him, he never really had much of a chance, etc.
That was just one of his many overly grandiose boasts that he'd never be able to back up.

a fool divorces his knowledge and misses the logic

i read this today, for the first time:

"I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours." (Stephen Roberts)

a little off my mind
take it from your soul
at a fraction of your heart
see it makes me whole

and multiply the times
we'll never be apart
because nothing can divide
a heart plus a heart

so tell me, everything must always equal two.. or nothing else is true.
 
And the Germans kill the Jews
And the Jews kill the Arabs
And the Arabs kill the hostages
And that is the news
And is it any wonder that the monkey's confused
He said Mama Mama, the President's a fool
Why do I have to keep reading these technical manuals
And the joint chiefs of staff
And the brokers on Wall Street said
Don't make us laugh, you're a smart kid
Time is linear
Memory's a stranger
History is for fools
Man is a tool in the hands
Of the great God Almighty
And they gave him command of a nuclear submarine
Sent him back in search of the Garden of Eden
 
Favorite quotes... Some of my inspiration.

I have no idea where this should go, so I'll stick it in homeless and maybe one of the mods can lend me a hand ;) ..

Wanted to share one of my favorite quotes ever as I'm high and feel like I need to share it with all of my fellow BLers....

It touches on alot of my personal views and philosophies.

What are some of your favorite quotes/sources of inspiration?

From the late great Bill Hicks.

The world is like a ride at an amusement park. It goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question: Is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, "Hey - don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride..." But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok. Jesus - murdered; Martin Luther King - murdered; Malcolm X - murdered; Gandhi - murdered; John Lennon - murdered; Reagan... wounded. But it doesn't matter because: It's just a ride. And we can change it anytime we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings and money. A choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love, instead, see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money that we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.
 
Last time I dosed I went through some shitty stuff because I ended up getting hurt (sports activity that i'm not gonna get more specific about), and concerning my summation of interconnected problems (chronic pain being one of them but they all seem to weave together). I started telling people that were pretending to be mildly-considerate or light-weight cared but wouldn't have understood my entire psyche to....

"Dive in, or fuck off."

I have loved this quote since I created it and feel that it describes a lot of my life. Acid revelations are quite often profound for me.
