Life is only a dream and we are the imagination of ourselves.
That is a great idea, isn’t it? We’ll wake up soon as someone else.
I don’t mean to sound bitter, cold, or cruel, but I am, so that’s how it comes out.
I don’t often feel like that but sometimes, when I look at what we are doing to the world, the cruelty, thoughtlessness, selfishness and greed, I get to feel angry and sad.
Watching television is like taking black spray paint to your third eye.
It destroys our creativity!
We are the facilitators of our own creative evolution.
If you don’t think drugs have done good things for us, then take all of your records, tapes and CD’s and burn them.
I get a kick out of being an outsider constantly. It allows me to be creative.
Me too.
It’s always funny until someone gets hurt. Then it’s just hilarious.
Why is it that we get pleasure out of other peoples’ pain?
Children are smarter than any of us. Know how I know that? I don’t know one child with a full time job and children.
They have it easy!
I live in love, in laughter, and in truth, and wherever truth, love and laughter abide, I am there in spirit.
That’s a bit like Steinbeck, isn’t it – the words of Tom Joad
Awesome quotes! Unfortunately I have never read any of Steinback’s work but I hope to rectify that soon! 🙂
Grapes of Wrath and East of Eden are magnificent. Well worth a read.
Yeah those are the two I’ve heard most about and I’m hoping to read them soon 🙂
Enjoy! Get lost in them!
“Life is only a dream and we are the imagination of ourselves.” Plato (the younger) would probably agree with that! LOL
I like the idea that we create our own selves out of our imagination. Nothing is real. There is nothing of substance. All we are is our own fantasy. I think Plato would like that too.
Bill Hicks is my favourite US comedian, I think. Can’t resist sending you the best anti-war joke I’ve ever seen …

That’s very frustrating Dave! I haven’t managed to sort out any sound on my system yet! I can only watch Bill mime.
Good luck with that Opher – I know how keen you are on music and stuff.
Be there soon. I’ve been requisitioned for putting up shelves, unpacking and putting furniture together. Soon be on top!

You’ll know the routine but the court case is interesting… https://johnscottcomedy.com/2015/10/29/comedy-outlaws-no-2-george- carlin-7-words-you-cant-say-on-television/
George is one of my favourites too!
It is hard to believe that Lenny and George were actually arrested for that. Times change.
