Reality is observer-determined - it's a spatio-temporal process, which fortunately means that things must change.

Death is simply a break in our linear stream of consciousness.

Nothing has existence unless you, I, or some living creature perceives it, and how it is perceived further influences that reality. Even time itself is not exempted from biocentrism.

Religion and science look at reality differently.

The laws of nature are structured so that we grow and change, and get to experience the full spectrum of biological existence.

Time is not an absolute reality but an aspect of our consciousness.

Modern science cannot explain why the laws of physics are exactly balanced for animal life to exist.

Without consciousness, space and time are nothing.

That's absolutely correct and in addition to that life just isn't an accident of the laws of physics. There's a long list of experiments that suggest just the opposite.

We don't have time to wait for President Bush to change his mind. How many breakthroughs have been missed as a result of this policy?

Our linear concept of time means nothing to nature.

It is that little bit of extra attention that makes all the difference.

It doesn't matter who you are. Everyone's fear is equal.

The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four Americans is suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends. If they're okay, then it's you.

As morality seems to have supplanted civilization, I move on to the spiritual.

The most fundamental tragedy of my life is that the ones who I see do not exist and the one who exists I do not see.

I totally related to Cole Porter's magnetic pull to any piano that was in the room, which he was famous for doing, as was Gershwin. You couldn't drag them away from a piano.
