Interests

A few sayings that really strike me:

"Plans for tomorrow can have no significance at all unless you are in full contact with the reality of the present, since it is in the present and only in the present that you live."
-Alan Watts

"Man suffers only because he takes seriously what the gods made for fun."
-Alan Watts

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."
-Albert Einstein

"The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge."
-Stephen Hawking

"The real secret of magic is that the world is made of words, and that if you know the words that the world is made of you can make of it whatever you wish."
-Terence Mckenna

"Human beings live in their myths. They only endure their realities."
-Robert Anton Wilson

"If you want to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe."
-Carl Sagan

"...we had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave... So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark—that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back."
-Hunter S Thompson
