Take a deep breath and tell us your deepest, darkest secret, so we can wipe our brow and know that we're not alone.
Alan WattsThe biggest ego trip is getting rid of your ego, and of course the joke of it all is that your ego does not exist.
Alan WattsTo define is to limit, to set boundaries, to compare and to contrast, and for this reason, the universe, the all, seems to defy definition....Just as no one in his senses would look for the morning news in a dictionary, no one should use speaking and thinking to find out what cannot be spoken or thought.
Alan WattsWe have somehow conned ourselves into the notion that this moment is ordinary. This now moment, in which I'm talking and you're listening, is eternity.
Alan WattsWhen a man no longer confuses himself with the definition of himself that others have given him, he is at once universal and unique. He is universal by virtue of the inseparability of his organism from the cosmos. He is unique in that he is just this organism and not any stereotype of role, class, or identity assumed for the convenience of social communication.
