"There are as many pillows of illusion..." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“My hours are peaceful centuries.”

“Vivacity, leadership, must be had, and we are not allowed to be nice in choosing. We must fetch the pump with dirty water, if clean cannot be had.”

“In the last analysis, love is only the reflection of a man's own worthiness from other men.”

“The hallucination of being a separate ego will not stand up to biological tests.”

“This world's existence is one night long. There's a great lively gathering that night, but some people sleep through it.”

“I have realized that the past and future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is.”

“Wherever you are there you are!”

“Some things ARE true, even though the party says they are true.”

“There is no self-interest completely unrelated to others' interests. Due to the fundamental interconnectedness which lies at the heart of reality, your interest is also my interest. From this it becomes clear that "my" interest and "your" interest are intimately connected. In a deep sense, they converge.”
