It pictures earthly beauty to our eyes in a truly heavenly splendor…” - F.W. Hildebrandt

“What did i tell you?! Forget the goddam sharks, and keep the camera on the poontang!”~Tommy Vercetti

“There are no choices. Nothing but a straight line. The illusion comes afterwards, when you ask ‘Why me?’ and ‘What if?’. When you look back and see the branches, like a pruned bonsai tree, or forked lightning. If you had done something differently, it wouldn’t be you, it would be someone else looking back, asking a different set of questions.” ~Max Payne

“Strike Hot Iron And Call Forth Sparks
Strike A Man And Call Forth Fury
To Shape Man Or Metal To Thy Will
Thou Must Strike With Force” ~Collected Sermons of Karras

“Without a touch of weirdness, life would be boring”

Of course, shamans also do other things besides making journeys to nonordinary reality. Some of these things may be thought to be rather strange to most people in our culture, such as talking with plants, animals, and all of nature. It sounds neurotic or deranged, of course, from the perspective of much of Western psychology. Nevertheless, our ancestors did it and managed to survive for 3 million years, whereas in the “civilized” countries of the world today, where people don’t talk with the planet and its inhabitants, we are faced with the possibility of nuclear destruction and ecological catastrophe. From these facts we may draw our own conclusions about which cultural assumptions are the saner.

  • Umberto Eco

The right to be heard does not automatically include the right to be taken seriously.

  • Hubert Humprey

As scarce as truth is, the supply has always been in excess of the demand.

  • Josh Billings

The power of music to integrate and cure. . . is quite fundamental. It is the profoundest nonchemical medication.

  • Oliver Sacks

You only see the tree by the light of the lamp. I wonder when you would ever see the lamp by the light of the tree.
