Daniel Quinn
“The world must live. We are only one species among billions. The gods don't love us any more than they love spiders or bears or whales or water lilies.”
Daniel Quinn

Daniel Quinn
“Thinkers aren't limited by what they know, because they can always increase what they know. Rather they're limited by what puzzles them, because there's no way to become curious about something that doesn't puzzle you.”
Daniel Quinn, My Ishmael

Noam Chomsky
“Either you repeat the same conventional doctrines that everybody else is saying,... [o]r else you say something which in fact is true, and it will sound like it's from Neptune.”
Noam Chomsky, Propaganda and the Public Mind

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“The breezes at dawn have secrets to tell you
Don't go back to sleep!
You must ask for what you really want.
Don't go back to sleep!
People are going back and forth
across the doorsill where the two worlds touch,
The door is round and open
Don't go back to sleep!”
Rumi

Daniel Quinn
“If the world is saved, it will not be saved by old minds with new programs but by new minds with no programs at all.”
Daniel Quinn, The Story of B
