“A book no more contains reality than a clock contains time.”

“we've produced a generation of spiritual panhandlers, begging for coins of wisdom, banging like bums on every closed door...if an old man moves into a shack or a cave and lets his beard grow, people will flock from miles around just to read his "no trespassing" sign”
― Tom Robbins, Even Cowgirls Get the Blues

“The international situation is desperate, as usual.”
― Tom Robbins , Even Cowgirls Get the Blues

“If we're ever going to get the world back on a natural footing, back in tune with natural rhythyms, if we're going to nurture the Earth and protect it and have fun with it and learn from it - which is what mothers do with their children - then we've got to put technology (an aggressive masculine system) in its proper place, which is that of a tool to be used sparingly, joyfully, gently and only in the fullest cooperation with nature. Nature must govern technology, not the other way around.”
― Tom Robbins, Even Cowgirls Get the Blues
