Alan Watts

"The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance." "Trying to define yourself is like trying to bite your own teeth." "You are that vast thing that you see far, far off with great telescopes." "The meaning of life is just to be alive." "The real you is not a puppet which life pushes around. The real, deep-down you is the whole universe." "Everybody is 'you'. Everybody is 'I'. That's our name. We all share that." "People who exude love are apt to give things away. They are in every way like rivers; they stream." "I owe my solitude to other people." "You don't look out there for God, something in the sky; you look in you." "No valid plans for the future can be made by those who have no capacity for living now."
