R. D. Laing

Insanity - a perfectly rational adjustment to an insane world.

Whether life is worth living depends on whether there is love in life.

We live in a moment of history where change is so speeded up that we begin to see the present only when it is already disappearing.

In early 1993, when I was 12, I was separated from my family as the Sierra Leone civil war, which began two years earlier, came into my life.

Never forget the power of silence, that massively disconcerting pause which goes on and on and may at last induce an opponent to babble and backtrack nervously.

When we fall asleep, we withdraw our awareness from its hypnotic fascination with physical sensation, thereby enabling us to listen with our now awakening sixth sense.
