In the society of men the truth resides now less in what things are than in what they are not. Our social realities are so ugly if seen in the light of exiled truth, and beauty is no longer possible if it is not a lie.

Our behavior is a function of our experience. We act according to the way we see things. If our experience is destroyed, our behavior will be destructive. If our experience is destroyed, we have lost our own selves.

We live equally out of our bodies and out of our minds.

Children are not yet fools, but we shall turn them into imbeciles like ourselves, with high I.Q.'s if possible.

The truth brings with it a great measure of absolution, always.

There are good reasons for being obedient, but being unable to be disobedient is not one of the best reasons.

True sanity entails in one way or another the dissolution of the normal ego, that false self competently adjusted to our alienated social reality... and through this death a rebirth and the eventual re-establishment of a new kind of ego-functioning, the ego now being the servant of the divine, no longer its betrayer.
