Alan W. Watts
“Spirituality needs a beer and a loud burp, just as sensuality needs a bed on the hard ground, a rough blanket, and a long look at the utterly improbable stars.”
Alan W. Watts, Beyond Theology: The Art of Godmanship

Rupert Spira
“Time and space are, in fact, dimensionless awareness refracted through the prism of the finite mind, that is, refracted through thought and perception.”
Rupert Spira, The Nature of Consciousness: Essays on the Unity of Mind and Matter

Robert M. Pirsig
“From that original perception of the Indians as the originators of the American style of speech had come an expansion: The Indians were the originators of the American style of life. The American personality is a mixture of European and Indian values. When you see this you begin to see a lot of things that have never been explained before.”
Robert M. Pirsig, Lila: An Inquiry Into Morals

Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Meantime nature is not slow to equip us in the prison uniform of the party to which we adhere. We come to wear one cut of face and figure, and acquire by degrees the gentlest asinine expression.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson, Self-Reliance

Henry David Thoreau
“We should go forth on the shortest walk, perchance, in the spirit of undying adventure, never to return; prepared to send back our embalmed hearts only, as relics to our desolate kingdoms. If you are ready to leave father and mother, and brother and sister, and wife and child and friends, and never see them again; if you have paid your debts, and made your will, and settled all your affairs, and are a free man; then you are ready for a walk.”
Henry David Thoreau, Walking
