Quotes

  • "What is the meaning of life?" This question has no answer except in the history of how it came to be asked. There is no answer because words have meaning, not life or persons or the universe itself. Our search for certainty rests in our attempts at understanding the history of all individual selves and all civilizations. Beyond that, there is only awe.
  • These esoteric poses of philosophy and even the paper theories of behaviorists are mere subterfuges to avoid the material we are talking about.
  • We can only know in the nervous system what we have known in behavior first.
  • Consciousness is a much smaller part of our mental life than we are conscious of, because we cannot be conscious of what we are not conscious of.
  • Memory is the medium of the must-have-been.
  • The very reason we need logic at all is because most reasoning is not conscious at all.
