“After the Earth dies, some five billion years from now, after it’s burned to a crisp, or even swallowed by the sun, there will be other worlds, stars, and galaxies coming into being and they will know nothing of a place called ‘Earth’.”
—Carl Sagan

“Life is purposeless. Don’t be shocked. The whole idea of purpose is wrong — it comes out of greed. Life is a sheer joy, a playfulness, a fun, a laughter, to no purpose at all. Life is its own end, it has no other end. The moment you understand it you have understood what meditation is all about. It is living your life joyously, playfully, totally, and with no purpose at the end, with no purpose in view, no purpose there at all. Just like small children playing on the sea beach, collecting seashells and coloured stones.”
—Osho
“Let’s not whore ourselves to nitwit ideologies. Let’s not give our control over to the least among us. The tools are there; the path is known; you simply have to turn your back on a culture that has gone sterile and dead, and get with the programme of a living world and a re-empowerment of the imagination.”
—Terence Mckenna
