It feels like quicksand
And if she sinks

More quotes by Björk

Nature has fixed no limits on our hopes.

It's a big question. Getting rid of religion would be a good start, wouldn't it? It seems to be causing a lot of havoc.

But, but, these are the people that made the Busby Berkeley movies, yeah? So they're not exactly subtle.

There's definitely, definitely, definitely, no logic to human behaviour
. . .
There's no map
And a compass
Wouldn't help at all

I don't like records that are the same from beginning to end, that are too styled and slick. Everything is so designed and airbrushed and Botoxed, it makes us think, 'Oh, everybody's perfect except me. Everything's smooth except me.' But nothing is smooth.

Robert Anton Wilson

Every morning
I shall concern myself anew about the boundary
Between the love-deed-Yes and the power-deed-No
And pressing forward honor reality.

Martin Buber Power and Love (1926)

In the province of the mind, what one believes to be true is true or becomes true, within certain limits to be found experientially and experimentally. These limits are further beliefs to be transcended.
