"Duality is always secretly unity...." - Quote by Alan Watts

“For there is never anything but the present, and if one cannot live there, one cannot live anywhere.”

“One's life is an act with no actor, and thus it has always been recognized that the insane man that has lost his mind is a parody of the sage who has transcended his ego. If one is paranoid, the other is metanoid.”

“No worthwhile life can be lived without risks, despite current American superstitions to the contrary.”

“Couples are wholes and not wholes, what agrees disagrees, the concordant is discordant. From all things one and from one all things.”

“If we try to deny the darkness in our souls then we'll become completely dark.”

“Every victory contains the germ of future defeat.”

“As for the imperialist countries, we should unite with their peoples and strive to coexist peacefully with those countries, do business with them and prevent any possible war, but under no circumstances should we harbour any unrealistic notions about them.”

“In a time of domestic crisis, men of goodwill and generosity should be able to unite regardless of party or politics.”

“The profound mistake of Reverend Wright's sermons is not that he spoke about racism in our society. It's that he spoke as if our society was static; as if no progress has been made; as if this country - a country that has made it possible for one of his own members to run for the highest office in the land and build a coalition of white and black; Latino and Asian, rich and poor, young and old - is still irrevocably bound to a tragic past.”
