Tom Robbins Quotes About Reality

• El mundo es un lugar maravillosamente extraño, la realidad consensuada es significativamente defectuosa, no se puede confiar en ninguna institución, la certeza es un espejismo, la seguridad un engaño, y la tiranía de la mente embotada amenaza para siempre - pero nuestras vidas no son tan limitadas como creemos que son, todas las cosas son posibles, la risa es más santa que la piedad, la libertad es más dulce que la fama, y al final es el amor y sólo el amor lo que realmente importa.

• We're making it up. The world, the universe, life, reality. Especially reality.

• A book no more contains reality than a clock contains time. A book may measure so-called reality as a clock measures so-called time; a book may create an illusion of reality as a clock creates an illusion of time; a book may be real, just as a clock is real (both more real, perhaps, than those ideas to which they allude); but let's not kid ourselves - all a clock contains is wheels and springs and all a book contains is sentences.

• If there’s a thing, a scene, maybe, an image that you want to see real bad, that you need to see but it doesn’t exist in the world around you, at least not in the form that you envision, then you create it so that you can look at it and have it around, or show it to other people who wouldn’t have imagined it because they perceive reality in a more narrow, predictable way. And that’s it. That’s all an artist does.

• The inability to correctly perceive reality is often responsible for humans' insane behavior. And every time they substitute an all-purpose, sloppy slang word for the words that would accurately describe an emotion or a situation, it lowers their reality orientations, pushes them farther from shore, out onto the foggy waters of alienation and confusion.

• Those people who recognise that imagination is reality's master, we call sages, and those who act upon it, we call artists.

• Live the beauty or your own reality.

• Laws, it is said, are for the protection of the people. It's unfortunate that there are no statistics on the number of lives that are clobbered yearly as a result of laws: outmoded laws; laws that found their way onto the books as a result of ignorance, hysteria or political haymaking; antilife laws; biased laws; laws that pretend that reality is fixed and nature is definable; laws that deny people the right to refuse protection. A survey such as that could keep a dozen dull sociologists out of mischief for months.

  Book, Ignorance, Reality

• Reality is contradictory. And it's paradoxical. If there's any one word -- if you had to pick one word to describe the nature of the universe -- I think that word would be paradox. That's true at the subatomic level, right through sociological, psychological, philosophical levels on up to cosmic levels.

• Lo que nosotros, gracias a Jung, llamamos "sincronicidad" (coincidencia con esteroides), los budistas lo conocen desde hace tiempo como "interpenetración de realidades". Ya se trate de una especie de ley natural o simplemente de una prueba de inevitabilidad matemática (un número infinito de monos encerrados con un número infinito de máquinas de escribir acaban produciendo "Hamlet", por no hablar de "Tarzán de los monos"), parece ser tan real como espeluznante.
