Banion wondered which was worse - being sodomized by aliens, or having to sit through two hours of Charles Ives.

Understand me. I’m not like an ordinary world. I have my madness, I live in another dimension and I do not have time for things that have no soul.

The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence.

Can you remember who you were, before the world told you who you should be?

People are strange: They are constantly angered by trivial things, but on a major matter like totally wasting their lives, they hardly seem to notice.

Find what you love and let it kill you.

If the evidence says you're wrong, you don't have the right theory. You change the theory, not the evidence.

If a man is right, he can't be too radical; if he is wrong, he can't be too conservative.

Sometimes we do that to ourselves -- we pit our desires against one another. We insist unnecessarily on seeing one aspect of our personality as being at odds with the rest of ourselves.

We are irritated by rascals, intolerant of fools, and prepared to love the rest. But where are they?

How hard is hitting? You ever walk into a pitch-black room full of furniture that you've never been in before and try to walk through it without bumping into anything? Well, it's harder than that.
