On some other world, possibly ...

On some other world, possibly it is different. Better. There are clear good and evil alternatives. Not these obscure admixtures, these blends, with no proper tool by which to untangle the components.

Philip Kindred Dick 239 quotes

Dilemma of civilized man; body...

Dilemma of civilized man; body mobilized, but danger obscure.

To live is to be haunted....

To live is to be haunted.

Sometimes I wish I knew how to go crazy. I forget how.

The will to believe chases out...

The will to believe chases out the rational mind, whenever and wherever the two come into conflict.

...the essence of the evil government is that it anticipates bad conduct on the part of its citizens. Any government which assumes that the population is going to do something evil has already lost its franchise to govern.

Whom the gods notice they destroy.

Philip Kindred Dick 239 quotes

To fight the Empire is to be i...

To fight the Empire is to be infected by its derangement.... Whoever defeats the Empire becomes the Empire; it proliferates like a virus.

When you are crazy you learn to keep quiet.

Philip Kindred Dick 239 quotes

He started keeping a journal -...

He started keeping a journal - had been, in fact, secretly doing so for some time: the furtive act of a deranged person.

Philip Kindred Dick 239 quotes

The Empire is the institution,...

The Empire is the institution, the codification, of derangement; it is insane and imposes its insanity on us by violence, since its nature is a violent one.

Philip Kindred Dick 239 quotes

In a civil war every side is ...

In a civil war every side is wrong. It's hopeless to try to untangle it. Everyone is a victim.

Philip Kindred Dick 239 quotes

The odd thing in this world is...

The odd thing in this world is that an eager-beaver type, with no original ideas, who mimes those in authority above him right to the last twist of necktie and scrape of chin, always gets noticed. Gets selected. Rises.

Philip Kindred Dick 239 quotes

Life is short, he thought. Art...

Life is short, he thought. Art, or something not life, is long, stretching out endless, like [a] concrete worm. Flat, white, unsmoothed by any passage over or across it.

Philip Kindred Dick 239 quotes

I think great art should play ...

I think great art should play a part in the ordinary man's life, don't you? It can make his existence so much richer and more meaningful.

Philip Kindred Dick 239 quotes

The day came. The wrath descen...

The day came. The wrath descended. Sin, guilt, and retribution? The manic psychoses of those entities we referred to as states, institutions, systems - the powers, the thrones, the dominations - the things which perpetually merge with men and emerge from them? Our darkness, externalized and visible? However you look upon these matters, the critical point was reached. The wrath descended.

Reality denied comes back to haunt.

The bird is gone, and in what meadow does it now sing?

Philip Kindred Dick 239 quotes

A human being without the prop...

A human being without the proper empathy or feeling is the same as an android built so as to lack it, either by design or mistake. We mean, basically, someone who does not care about the
fate which his fellow living creatures fall victim to; he stands detached, a spectator, acting out by his indifference John Donne's theorem that 'No man is an island,' but giving that
theorem a twist: that which is a mental and a moral island is not a man.

Philip Kindred Dick 239 quotes

Even if all life on our planet...

Even if all life on our planet is destroyed, there must be other life somewhere which we know nothing of. It is impossible that ours is the only world; there must be world after world
unseen by us, in some region or dimension that we simply do not perceive. Even though I can't prove that, even though it isn't logical - I believe it.
